We showed that frog alpha-ryanodine receptor (alpha-RyR) had a lower gain of Ca(2+)-induced Ca(2+) release (CICR) activity than beta-RyR in sarcoplasmic reticulum (SR) vesicles, indicating selective "stabilization" of the former isoform (Murayama T and Ogawa Y. J Biol Chem 276: 2953-2960, 2001). To know whether this is also the case with mammalian RyR1, we determined [(3)H]ryanodine binding of RyR1 and RyR3 in bovine diaphragm SR vesicles. The value of [(3)H]ryanodine binding (B) was normalized by the number of maximal binding sites (B(max)), whereby the specific activity of each isoform was expressed. This B/B(max) expression demonstrated that ryanodine binding of individual channels for RyR1 was <15% that for RyR3. Responses to Ca(2+), Mg(2+), adenine nucleotides, and caffeine were not substantially different between in situ and purified isoforms. These results suggest that the gain of CICR activity of RyR1 is markedly lower than that of RyR3 in mammalian skeletal muscle, indicating selective stabilization of RyR1 as is true of frog alpha-RyR. The stabilization was partly eliminated by FK506 and partly by solubilization of the vesicles with CHAPS, each of which was additive to the other. In contrast, high salt, which greatly enhances [(3)H]ryanodine binding, caused only a minor effect on the stabilization of RyR1. None of the T-tubule components, coexisting RyR3, or calmodulin was the cause. The CHAPS-sensitive intra- and intermolecular interactions that are common between mammalian and frog skeletal muscles and the isoform-specific inhibition by FKBP12, which is characteristic of mammals, are likely to be the underlying mechanisms.

Calmodulin (CaM) inhibits the skeletal muscle ryanodine receptor-1 (RyR1) and cardiac muscle RyR2 at micromolar Ca(2+) but activates RyR1 and inhibits RyR2 at submicromolar Ca(2+) by binding to a single, highly conserved CaM-binding site. To identify regions responsible for the differential regulation of RyR1 and RyR2 by CaM, we generated chimeras encompassing and flanking the CaM-binding domain. We found that the exchange of the N- and C-terminal flanking regions differentially affected RyR1 and RyR2. A RyR1/RyR2 chimera with an N-terminal flanking RyR2 substitution (RyR2 amino acid (aa) 3537-3579) was activated by CaM in single channel measurements at both submicromolar and micromolar Ca(2+). A RyR2/RyR1 chimera with a C-terminal flanking the 86-amino acid RyR1 substitution (RyR1 aa 3640-3725) bound (35)S-CaM but was not inhibited by CaM at submicromolar Ca(2+). In this region, five non-conserved amino acid residues (RyR1 aa 3680 and 3682-3685 and RyR2 aa 3647 and 3649-3652) differentially affect RyR helical probability. Substitution of the five amino acid residues in RyR1 with those of RyR2 showed responses to CaM comparable with wild type RyR1. In contrast, substitution of the five amino acid residues in RyR2 with those of RyR1 showed loss of CaM inhibition, whereas substitution of the five RyR2 sequence residues in the RyR2 chimera containing the RyR1 calmodulin-binding domain and C-flanking sequence restored wild type RyR2 inhibition by CaM at submicromolar Ca(2+). The results suggest that different regions are involved in CaM modulation of RyR1 and RyR2. They further suggest that five non-conserved amino acids in the C-terminal region flanking the CaM-binding domain have a key role in CaM inhibition of RyR2.

Interdomain interactions between N-terminal and central domains serving as a "domain switch" are believed to be essential to the functional regulation of the skeletal muscle ryanodine receptor-1 Ca(2+) channel. Mutational destabilization of the domain switch in malignant hyperthermia (MH), a genetic sensitivity to volatile anesthetics, causes functional instability of the channel. Dantrolene, a drug used to treat MH, binds to a region within this proposed domain switch. To explore its mechanism of action, the effect of dantrolene on MH-like channel activation by the synthetic domain peptide DP4 or anti-DP4 antibody was examined. A fluorescence probe, methylcoumarin acetate, was covalently attached to the domain switch using DP4 as a delivery vehicle. The magnitude of domain unzipping was determined from the accessibility of methylcoumarin acetate to a macromolecular fluorescence quencher. The Stern-Volmer quenching constant (K(Q)) increased with the addition of DP4 or anti-DP4 antibody. This increase was reversed by dantrolene at both 37 and 22 degrees C and was unaffected by calmodulin. [(3)H]Ryanodine binding to the sarcoplasmic reticulum and activation of sarcoplasmic reticulum Ca(2+) release, both measures of channel activation, were enhanced by DP4. These activities were inhibited by dantrolene at 37 degrees C, yet required the presence of calmodulin at 22 degrees C. These results suggest that the mechanism of action of dantrolene involves stabilization of domain-domain interactions within the domain switch, preventing domain unzipping-induced channel dysfunction. We suggest that temperature and calmodulin primarily affect the coupling between the domain switch and the downstream mechanism of regulation of Ca(2+) channel opening rather than the domain switch itself.

Calmodulin (CaM) activates the skeletal muscle ryanodine receptor (RyR1) at nanomolar Ca(2+) concentrations but inhibits it at micromolar Ca(2+) concentrations, indicating that binding of Ca(2+) to CaM may provide a molecular switch for modulating RyR1 channel activity. To directly examine the Ca(2+) sensitivity of RyR1-complexed CaM, we used an environment-sensitive acrylodan adduct of CaM. The resulting (ACR)CaM probe displayed high-affinity binding to, and Ca(2+)-dependent regulation of, RyR1 similar to that of unlabeled wild-type (WT) CaM. Upon addition of Ca(2+), (ACR)CaM exhibited a substantial (>50%) decrease in fluorescence (K(Ca) = 2.7 +/- 0.8 microM). A peptide derived from the RyR1 CaM binding domain (RyR1(3614)(-)(43)) caused an even more pronounced Ca(2+)-dependent fluorescence decrease, and a >or=10-fold leftward shift in its K(Ca) (0.2 +/- 0.1 microM). In the presence of intact RyR1 channels in SR vesicles, (ACR)CaM fluorescence spectra were distinct from those in the presence of RyR1(3614)(-)(43), although a Ca(2+)-dependent decrease in fluorescence was still observed. The K(Ca) for (ACR)CaM fluorescence in the presence of SR (0.8 +/- 0.4 microM) was greater than in the presence of RyR1(3614)(-)(43) but was consistent with functional determinations showing the conversion of (ACR)CaM from channel activator (apoCaM) to inhibitor (Ca(2+)CaM) at Ca(2+) concentrations between 0.3 and 1 microM. These results indicate that binding to RyR1 targets evokes significant changes in the CaM structure and Ca(2+) sensitivity (i.e., CaM tuning). However, changes resulting from binding of CaM to the full-length, tetrameric channels are clearly distinct from changes caused by the RyR1-derived peptide. We suggest that the Ca(2+) sensitivity of CaM when in complex with full-length channels may be tuned to respond to physiologically relevant changes in Ca(2+).

The calmodulin C lobe binding region (residues 3614-3643) on the sarcoplasmic reticulum Ca2+ release channel (RyR1) is thought to be a region of contact between subunits within RyR1 homotetramer Ca2+ release channels. To determine whether the 3614-3643 region is a regulatory site/interaction domain within RyR in muscle fibers, we have investigated the effect of a synthetic peptide corresponding to this region (R3614-3643) on Ca2+ sparks in frog skeletal muscle fibers. R3614-3643 (0.2-3.0 microM) promoted the occurrence of Ca2+ sparks in a highly cooperative dose-dependent manner, with a half-maximal activation at 0.47 microM and a maximal increase in frequency of approximately 5-fold. A peptide with a single amino acid substitution within R3614-3643 (L3624D) retained the ability to bind Ca(2+)-free calmodulin but did not increase Ca2+ spark frequency, suggesting that R3614-3643 does not modulate Ca2+ sparks by removal of endogenous calmodulin. Our data support a model in which the calmodulin binding domain of RyR1 modulates channel activity by at least two mechanisms: direct binding of calmodulin as well as interactions with other regions of RyR.

Both cardiac and skeletal muscle ryanodine receptors (RyRs) are parts of large complexes that include a number of kinases and phosphatases. These RyRs have several potential phosphorylation sites in their cytoplasmic domains, but the functional consequences of phosphorylation and the identity of the enzymes responsible have been subjects of considerable controversy. Hyperphosphorylation of Ser-2809 in RyR2 (cardiac isoform) and Ser-2843 in RyR1 (skeletal isoform) has been suggested to cause the dissociation of the FK506-binding protein (FKBP) from RyRs, producing "leaky channels," but some laboratories find no relationship between phosphorylation and FKBP binding. Also debated is the identity of the kinases that phosphorylate these serines: cAMP-dependent protein kinase (PKA) versus calmodulin kinase II (CaMKII). Phosphorylation of other targets of these kinases could also alter calcium homeostasis. For example, PKA also phosphorylates phospholamban (PLB), altering the Sarco-endoplasmic reticulum Ca2+ ATPase (SERCA) activity. This review summarizes the major findings and controversies associated with phosphorylation of RyRs.

The skeletal muscle Ca2+ release channel, the ryanodine receptor, is activated by the trypanocidal drug suramin via the calmodulin-binding site. As calmodulin activates and inhibits the ryanodine receptor depending on whether Ca2+ is absent or present, suramin analogues were screened for inhibition of the ryanodine receptor. Up to 300 microM, the novel suramin analogue, 4,4'-(carbonyl-bis(imino-4,1-phenylene-(2,5-benzimidazolylene)carbonylimino))-bis-benzenesulfonic acid disodium salt (NF676) was not able to significantly inhibit the basal [3H]ryanodine binding. However, kinetic analysis of the high affinity [3H]ryanodine binding elucidates a time-dependent increment of inhibition by NF676, which is indicative for an open channel blocker. Moreover, the ryanodine receptor was much more sensitive towards inhibition by NF676 when preactivated with caffeine or the nonhydrolysable ATP analogue, adenylyl-imidodiphosphate. Nonetheless, the suramin activated ryanodine receptor was not susceptible towards high-affinity NF676 inhibition, indicating an allosteric hindrance between the binding sites of suramin and NF676. In the line of this finding, NF676 per se was not capable to elute the purified ryanodine receptor from a calmodulin-Sepharose, but it prevented the elution by suramin. Other than suramin, NF676 did not inhibit the Ca2+ ATPase of the sarcoplasmic reticulum. However, suramin-induced Ca2+ release from sarcoplasmic reticulum was completely abrogated by preincubation with NF676. Taken together, we conclude from these data that NF676 represents a novel lead compound as a potent use-dependent blocker of the skeletal muscle ryanodine receptor via an allosteric interaction with the suramin-binding site.

Eu et al., reported that O2 dynamically controls the redox state of 6-8 out of 50 thiols per skeletal ryanodine receptor (RyR1) subunit and thereby tunes the response of Ca2+-release channels to authentic nitric oxide (NO) [J.P. Eu, J. Sun, L. Xu, J.S. Stamler, G. Meissner, The skeletal muscle calcium release channel: coupled O2 sensor and NO signaling functions, Cell 102 (2000) 499-509]. A role for O2 was based on the observation that RyR1 can be activated by submicromolar NO at physiological ( approximately 10 mmHg) but not ambient (approximately 150 mmHg) pO2. At ambient pO2, these critical thiols were oxidized but incubation at low pO2 reset the redox state of these thiols, closed RyR1 channels and made these thiols available for nitrosation by low NO concentrations. Eu et al., postulated the existence of a redox/O2sensor that couples channel activity to NO and pO2 and explained that "the nature of the 'redox/O2 sensor' that couples channel activity to intracellular redox chemistry is a mystery". Here, we re-examined the effect of pO2 on RyR1 and find that incubation of RyR1 at low pO2 did not alter channel activity and NO (0.5-50 microM) failed to activate RyR1 despite a wide range of pO2 pre-incubation conditions. We show that low levels of NO do not activate RyR1, do not reverse the inhibition of RyR1 by calmodulin (CaM) even at physiological pO2. Similarly, the pre-incubation of SR vesicles in low pO2 (for 10-80 min) did not inhibit channel activity or sensitization of RyR1 to NO. We discuss the significance of these findings and propose that caution should be taken when considering a role for pO2 and nitrosation by NO as mechanisms that tune RyRs in striated muscles.

A fragment of RyR1 (amino acids 4064-4210) is predicted to fold to at least one lobe of calmodulin and to bind Ca(2+). This fragment of RyR1 (R4064-4210) was subcloned, expressed, refolded, and purified. Consistent with the predicted folding pattern, R4064-4210 was found to bind two molecules of Ca(2+) and undergo a structural change upon binding Ca(2+) that exposes hydrophobic amino acids. R4064-4210 also binds to RyR1, the L-type Ca(2+) channel (Cav(1.1)), and several synthetic calmodulin binding peptides. Both R4064-4210 and a peptide representing the calmodulin-binding region of RyR1 (R3614-3643) alter the Ca(2+) dependence of ((3)H)ryanodine binding to RyR1, suggesting that they may both be interfering with an intramolecular interaction between amino acids 4064-4210 and amino acids 3614-3643 in the native RyR1 to alter or regulate the response of the channel to changes in Ca(2+) concentration. The finding that a domain within RyR1 binds Ca(2+) and interacts with calmodulin-binding motifs may provide insights into the mechanism for calcium- and calmodulin-dependent regulation of this channel and perhaps for its regulation by the L-type Ca(2+) channel.

Ryanodine receptors (RyRs) are a family of intracellular Ca(2+) channels that are regulated by calmodulin (CaM). At low Ca(2+) concentrations (<1 microM), CaM activates RyR1 and RyR3 and inhibits RyR2. At elevated Ca(2+) concentrations (>1 microM), CaM inhibits all three RyR isoforms. Here we report that the regulation of recombinant RyR3 by CaM is sensitive to redox regulation. RyR3 in the presence of reduced glutathione binds CaM with 10-15-fold higher affinity, at low and high Ca(2+) concentrations, compared to in the presence of oxidized glutathione. However, compared to RyR1 assayed at low Ca(2+) concentrations under both reducing and oxidizing conditions, CaM binds RyR3 with reduced affinity but activates RyR3 to a greater extent. Under reducing conditions, RyR1 and RyR3 activities are inhibited with a similar affinity at [Ca(2+)] > 1 microM. Mutagenesis studies demonstrate that RyR3 contains a single conserved CaM binding site. Corresponding amino acid substitutions in the CaM binding site differentially affect CaM binding and CaM regulation of RyR3 and those of the two other isoforms. The results support the suggestion that other isoform dependent regions have a major role in the regulation of RyRs by CaM [Yamaguchi et al. (2004) J. Biol. Chem. 279, 36433-36439].
