The photoaffinity analog of ATP, 3'-O-(4-benzoyl)benzoyl-adenosine 5'-triphosphate (Bz2ATP) was used to covalently label and to identify the ATP binding site of the skeletal muscle ryanodine receptor. Like ATP, Bz2ATP stimulates up to fivefold the binding of ryanodine to its receptor. Photoactivation by ultraviolet light of the benzophenone group in the [alpha-32P]Bz2ATP results in covalent binding of [alpha-32P]Bz2ATP to the 450-kDa polypeptide, the ryanodine receptor's subunit. An apparent molar stiochiometry of Bz2ATP to the tetrameric ryanodine receptor complex of 1.146 +/- 0.087 (n = 2) was estimated. The covalent binding of [alpha-32P]Bz2ATP was inhibited by ATP and analogous compounds in the order: ATP = AdoPP[CH2]P = ADP = Ado = cAMP > AMP > ITP = GTP. Similar specificity was obtained for the stimulation of ryanodine binding by these nucleotides. ATP increased the ryanodine binding affinity by about sixfold. The polycationic dye ruthenium red, known as an inhibitor of Ca2+ release and ryanodine binding, inhibited the labeling of the ryanodine receptor by [alpha-32P]Bz2ATP. Tryptic digestion of the ryanodine receptor revealed a [alpha-32P]Bz2ATP-labeled 76-kDa tryptic fragment. Digestion of either the [alpha-32P]Bz2ATP-labeled 450-kDa or the 76-kDa polypeptides with S. aureus resulted in the appearance of four labeled fragments of 39, 33, 27 and 13 kDa, where the 39-kDa fragment is the precursor of the 27-kDa and 13-kDa fragments. The results suggest that the regulation of Ca2+ release by ATP involves an ATP binding site(s) located on the 27-kDa and 13-kDa fragments of the ryanodine receptor protein.

Porcine skeletal and cardiac muscle sarcoplasmic reticulum (SR) vesicle fractions enriched in the ryanodine receptor were phosphorylated in the presence of [gamma-32P]MgATP and either exogenous cAMP-dependent protein kinase (cAMP-PK), or Ca2+ plus calmodulin. Phosphorylation of the cardiac muscle ryanodine receptor in the presence of either cAMP-PK or calmodulin (6.4 and 10.6 pmol Pi/mg SR respectively) was approximately equal to or twice the [3H]ryanodine binding activity of this preparation (5.2 pmol/mg). Furthermore, cardiac muscle ryanodine receptor Pi incorporation catalyzed by cAMP-PK and calmodulin was approximately additive. In skeletal muscle SR, however, the level of cAMP-PK or calmodulin catalyzed phosphorylation of the intact ryanodine receptor (0.2 or 2.9 pmol Pi/mg SR, respectively) was much less than the [3H]ryanodine binding activity of this fraction (11.6 pmol/mg). Furthermore, Pi incorporation into the intact skeletal muscle ryanodine receptor was 3-8-fold less than that incorporated into a component of slightly lower M(r). Although this latter component comigrated with an immunoreactive fragment of the ryanodine receptor on polyacrylamide gels, it did not appear to be derived from the ryanodine receptor. We conclude that the significant phosphorylation of the cardiac muscle SR ryanodine receptor indicates a likely physiological role for protein kinase-mediated regulation of this Ca(2+)-channel. In contrast, the minimal phosphorylation of the skeletal muscle SR ryanodine receptor indicates that such a role of protein kinases is unlikely in this tissue.

In the renal collecting duct, vasopressin increases osmotic water permeability (P(f)) by triggering trafficking of aquaporin-2 vesicles to the apical plasma membrane. We investigated the role of vasopressin-induced intracellular Ca(2+) mobilization in this process. In isolated inner medullary collecting ducts (IMCDs), vasopressin (0.1 nm) and 8-(4-chlorophenylthio)-cAMP (0.1 mm) elicited marked increases in [Ca(2+)](i) (fluo-4). Vasopressin-induced Ca(2+) mobilization was completely blocked by preloading with the Ca(2+) chelator BAPTA. In parallel experiments, BAPTA completely blocked the vasopressin-induced increase in P(f) without affecting adenosine 3',5'-cyclic monophosphate (cAMP) production. Previously, we demonstrated the lack of activation of the phosphoinositide-signaling pathway by vasopressin in IMCD, suggesting an inositol 1,4,5-trisphosphate-independent mechanism of Ca(2+) release. Evidence for expression of the type 1 ryanodine receptor (RyR1) in IMCD was obtained by immunofluorescence, immunoblotting, and reverse transcription-polymerase chain reaction. Ryanodine (100 microm), a ryanodine receptor antagonist, blocked the arginine vasopressin-mediated increase in P(f) and blocked vasopressin-stimulated redistribution of aquaporin-2 to the plasma membrane domain in primary cultures of IMCD cells, as assessed by immunofluorescence immunocytochemistry. Calmodulin inhibitors (W7 and trifluoperazine) blocked the P(f) response to vasopressin and the vasopressin-stimulated redistribution of aquaporin-2. The results suggest that Ca(2+) release from ryanodine-sensitive stores plays an essential role in vasopressin-mediated aquaporin-2 trafficking via a calmodulin-dependent mechanism.

Calcitonin gene related peptide (CGRP) is a vasodilator; its plasma levels are altered in several human diseases, including migraine, hypertension and diabetes. CGRP is locally released by motor neurons, and is overexpressed in response to surgical or pharmacological blockage of neuromuscular transmission. Additionally to a brief discussion with regard to the clinical relevance of CGRP, this review focuses on the effects of CGRP on skeletal muscle excitation-contraction (EC) coupling, as well as the corresponding pathophysiological consequences. EC coupling involves activation of 2 different types of calcium channels: dihydropyridine receptors (DHPRs) located at the sarcolemma, and ryanodine receptors (RyR1s) located at the sarcoplasmic reticulum (SR). In response to electrical depolarization, DHPRs activate nearby and physically bound RyR1s, allowing Ca(2+) from the SR to move into the cytosol (termed voltage-gated Ca(2+) release, or VGCR). We recently found that CGRP stimulates VGCR by 350 % in as short as 1h. This effect, which lasts for at least 48 h, is due to activation of the CGRP receptor, and requires activation of the cAMP/PKA signaling pathway. CGRP also increases the amplitude of caffeine-induced Ca(2+) release (400 %); suggesting increased SR Ca(2+) content underlies stimulation of VGCR. Interestingly, in the long-term CGRP also increases the density of sarcolemmal DHPRs (up to 30%, within 24-48 h). We propose that these CGRP effects may contribute to prevent and/or restore symptoms in central core disease (CCD); a congenital myopathy that is linked to mutations in the gene encoding RyR1.
