Abstract excerpt
In skeletal muscle excitation-contraction (E-C) coupling, depolarization of the plasma membrane triggers Ca2+ release from the sarcoplasmic reticulum (SR), referred to as depolarization-induced Ca2+ release (DICR). DICR occurs through the type 1 ryanodine receptor (RyR1), which physically interacts with the dihydropyridine receptor Cav1.1 subunit in specific machinery formed with additional essential components...
