CaMBP, a peptide corresponding to the 3614-3643 calmodulin (CaM) binding region of the ryanodine receptor (RyR1), is known to activate RyR1 Ca2+ channel. To analyze the mechanism of channel regulation by the CaMBP-RyR1 interaction, we investigated a), CaMBP binding to RyR1, b), induced local conformational changes in the CaMBP binding region of RyR1 using the fluorescent conformational probe badan attached to CaMBP (CaMBP-badan), and c), effects of "a" and "b" on SR Ca2+ release. We also monitored the interaction of CaMBP-badan with CaM and a peptide corresponding to the Met3534-Ala4271 region of RyR1 (R3534-4271) as a control. At lower peptide concentrations (< or =15 microM), CaMBP binding to RyR1 increased the intensity of badan fluorescence emission at a shorter wavelength (the state resembling CaMBP-badan/Ca-CaM) and induced Ca2+ release. Further increase in CaMBP concentration (up to approximately 50 microM) produced more binding of CaMBP accompanied by further increase in the badan fluorescence emission but at a longer wavelength (the state resembling CaMBP-badan/apo-CaM) and inhibited Ca2+ release. Binding of CaMBP-badan to R3534-4271 increased the intensity of badan fluorescence, showing the similar concentration-dependent red-shift of the emission maximum. It is proposed that CaMBP interacts with two classes of binding sites located in the Met3534-Ala4271 region of RyR1, which activate and inhibit the Ca2+ channel, respectively.

Type 2 ryanodine receptor (RyR2) is the major calcium release channel in cardiac muscle. Phosphorylation of RyR2 by cAMP-dependent protein kinase A and by calmodulin-dependent protein kinase II modulates channel activity. Hyperphosphorylation at a single amino acid residue, Ser-2808, has been proposed to directly disrupt the binding of a 12.6-kDa FK506-binding protein (FKBP12.6) to RyR2, causing a RyR2 malfunction that triggers cardiac arrhythmias in human heart failure. To determine the structural basis of the interaction between Ser-2808 and FKBP12.6, we have employed two independent approaches to map this phosphorylation site in RyR2 by three-dimensional cryo-electron microscopy. In one approach, we inserted a green fluorescent protein (GFP) after amino acid Tyr-2801, and mapped the GFP three-dimensional location in the RyR2 structure. In another approach, the binding site of monoclonal antibody 34C was mapped in the three-dimensional structure of skeletal muscle RyR1. The epitope of antibody 34C has been mapped to amino acid residues 2,756 through 2,803 of the RyR1 sequence, corresponding to residues 2,722 through 2,769 of the RyR2 sequence. These locations of GFP insertion and antibody binding are adjacent to one another in domain 6 of the cytoplasmic clamp region. Importantly, the three-dimensional location of the Ser-2808 phosphorylation site is 105-120 A distance from the FKBP12.6 binding site mapped previously, indicating that Ser-2808 is unlikely to be directly involved in the binding of FKBP12.6 to RyR2, as had been proposed previously.

Calmodulin (CaM) regulates calcium release from intracellular stores in skeletal muscle through its association with the ryanodine receptor (RyR1) calcium release channel, where CaM association enhances channel opening at resting calcium levels and its closing at micromolar calcium levels associated with muscle contraction. A high-affinity CaM-binding sequence (RyRp) has been identified in RyR1, which corresponds to a 30-residue sequence (i.e., K3614-N3643) located within the central portion of the primary sequence. However, it is presently unclear whether the identified CaM-binding sequence in association with CaM (a) senses calcium over the physiological range of calcium concentrations associated with RyR1 regulation or alternatively, (b) plays a structural role unrelated to the calcium-dependent modulation of RyR1 function. Therefore, we have measured the calcium-dependent activation of the individual domains of CaM in association with RyRp and their relationship to the CaM-dependent regulation of RyR1. These measurements utilize an engineered CaM, permitting the site-specific incorporation of N-(1-pyrene)maleimide at either T34C (PyN-CaM) or T110C (PyC-CaM) in the N- and C-domains, respectively. Consistent with prior measurements, we observe a high-affinity association of both apo-CaM and calcium-activated CaM with RyRp. Upon association with RyRp, fluorescence changes in PyN-CaM or PyC-CaM permit the measurement of the calcium-dependent activation of these individual domains. Fluorescence changes upon calcium activation of PyC-CaM in association with RyRp are indicative of high-affinity calcium-dependent activation of the C-terminal domain of CaM at resting calcium levels; at calcium levels associated with muscle contraction, activation of the N-terminal domain occurs with concomitant increases in the fluorescence intensity of PyC-CaM that is associated with structural changes within the CaM-binding sequence of RyR1. Occupancy of calcium-binding sites in the N-domain of CaM mirrors the calcium dependence of RyR1 inhibition observed at activating calcium levels, where [Ca]1/2 = 4.3 +/- 0.4 microM, suggesting a direct regulation of RyR1 function upon the calcium-dependent activation of CaM. These results indicate that occupancy of the N-terminal domain calcium binding sites in CaM bound to the identified CaM-binding sequence K3614-N3643 induces conformational rearrangements within the complex between CaM and RyR1 responsible for the CaM-dependent modulation of the RyR1 calcium release channel.

The oxidation of methionines in calmodulin (CaM) can affect the activity of calcium pumps and channels to modulate the amplitude and duration of calcium signals. We have therefore investigated the possible oxidation of CaM in skeletal muscle and its effect on the CaM-dependent regulation of the RyR1 calcium release channel. Taking advantage of characteristic reductions in electrophoretic mobility determined by SDS-PAGE, we find that approximately two methionines are oxidized in CaM from skeletal muscle. The functional effect of CaM oxidation on the open probability of the RyR1 calcium release channel was assessed through measurements of [3H]ryanodine binding using a heavy sarcoplasmic reticulum preparation enriched in RyR1. There is a biphasic regulation of RyR1 by unoxidized CaM, in which calcium-activated CaM acts to enhance the calcium sensitivity of channel closure, while apo-CaM functions to enhance channel activity at resting calcium levels. We find that physiological levels of CaM oxidation preferentially weaken the CaM-dependent inhibition of the RyR1 calcium release channel observed at activating micromolar levels of calcium. In contrast, the oxidation of CaM resulted in minimal functional changes in the CaM-dependent activation of RyR1 at resting nanomolar calcium levels. Oxidation does not significantly affect the high-affinity binding of calcium-activated CaM to the CaM-binding sequence of RyR1; rather, methionine oxidation disrupts interdomain interactions between the opposing domains of CaM in complex with the CaM-binding sequence of RyR1 that normally function as part of a conformational switch associated with RyR1 inhibition. These results suggest that the oxidation of CaM can contribute to observed elevations in intracellular calcium levels in response to conditions of oxidative stress observed during biological aging. We suggest that the sensitivity of RyR1 channel activity to CaM oxidation may function as part of an adaptive cellular response that enhances the duration of calcium transients to promote enhanced contractility.

In the present study we show that the interaction of the CaM (calmodulin)-binding domain (Lys(3614)-Asn(3643)) with the Cys(4114)-Asn(4142) region (a region included in the CaM-like domain) serves as an intrinsic regulator of the RyR1 (type-1 ryanodine receptor). We tested the effects of antibodies raised against the two putative key regions of RyR1 [anti-(Lys(3614)-Asn(3643)) and anti-(Cys(4114)-Asn(4142)) antibodies]. Both antibodies produced significant inhibition of [3H]ryanodine-binding activity of RyR1. This suggests that the inter-domain interaction between the two domains, Lys(3614)-Asn(3643) and Cys(4114)-Asn(4142), activates the channel, and that the binding of antibody to either side of the interacting domain pair interfered with the formation of a 'channel-activation link' between the two regions. In order to spectroscopically monitor the mode of interaction of these domains, the site of inter-domain interaction was fluorescently labelled with MCA [(7-methoxycoumarin-4-yl)acetyl] in a site-directed manner. The accessibility of the bound MCA to a large molecular mass fluorescence quencher, BSA-QSY (namely, the size of a gap between the interacting domains) decreased with an increase of [Ca2+] in a range of 0.03-2.0 microM, as determined by Stern-Volmer fluorescence quenching analysis. The Ca2+-dependent decrease in the quencher accessibility was more pronounced in the presence of 150 microM 4-CmC (4-chlorometacresol), and was reversed by 1 mM Mg2+ (a well-known inhibitor of Ca2+/agonist-induced channel activation). These results suggest that the Lys(3614)-Asn(3643) and Cys(4114)-Asn(4142) regions of RyR1 interact with each other in a Ca2+- and agonist-dependent manner, and this serves as a mechanism of Ca2+- and agonist-dependent activation of the RyR1 Ca2+ channel.

We have used fluorescence spectroscopy to investigate the structure of calmodulin (CaM) bound with CaM-binding sequences of either the plasma membrane Ca-ATPase or the skeletal muscle ryanodine receptor (RyR1) calcium release channel. Following derivatization with N-(1-pyrene)maleimide at engineered sites (T34C and T110C) within the N- and C-domains of CaM, contact interactions between these opposing domains of CaM resulted in excimer fluorescence that permits us to monitor conformational states of bound CaM. Complementary measurements take advantage of the unique conserved Trp within CaM-binding sequences that functions as a hydrophobic anchor in CaM binding and permits measurements of both a local and global peptide structure. We find that CaM binds with high affinity in a collapsed structure to the CaM-binding sequences of both the Ca-ATPase and RyR1, resulting in excimer formation that is indicative of contact interactions between the N- and the C-domains of CaM in complex with these CaM-binding peptides. There is a 4-fold larger amount of excimer formation for CaM bound to the CaM-binding sequence of the Ca-ATPase in comparison to RyR1, indicating a closer structural coupling between CaM domains in this complex. Prior to CaM association, the CaM-binding sequences of the Ca-ATPase and RyR1 are conformationally disordered. Upon CaM association, the CaM-binding sequence of the Ca-ATPase assumes a highly ordered structure. In comparison, the CaM-binding sequence of RyR1 remains conformationally disordered irrespective of CaM binding. These results suggest an important role for interdomain contact interactions between the opposing domains of CaM in stabilizing the structure of the peptide complex. The substantially different structural responses associated with CaM binding to Ca-ATPase and RyR1 indicates a plasticity in their respective binding mechanisms that accomplishes different physical mechanisms of allosteric regulation, involving either the dissociation of a C-terminal regulatory domain necessary for pump activation or the modulation of intersubunit interactions to diminish RyR1 channel activity.

The expression of TRPC3 (canonical-type transient receptor potential cation channel type 3) is tightly regulated during skeletal muscle cell differentiation, and a functional interaction between TRPC3 and RyR1 [(ryanodine receptor type 1), an SR (sarcoplasmic reticulum) Ca2+-release channel] regulates the gain of SR Ca2+ release during EC (excitation-contraction) coupling. However, it has not been possible to demonstrate direct protein-protein interactions between TRPC3 and RyR1. To identify possible candidate(s) for a linker protein(s) between TRPC3 and RyR1 in skeletal muscle, in the present study we performed MALDI-TOF (matrix-assisted laser-desorption ionization-time-of-flight) MS analysis of a cross-linked triadic protein complex from rabbit skeletal triad vesicles and co-immunoprecipitation assays using primary mouse skeletal myotubes. From these studies, we found that six triadic proteins, that are known to regulate RyR1 function and/or EC coupling [TRPC1, JP2 (junctophilin 2), homer, mitsugumin 29, calreticulin and calmodulin], interacted directly with TRPC3 in a Ca2+-independent manner. However we again found no direct interaction between TRPC3 and RyR1. TRPC1 was identified as a potential physical link between TRPC3 and RyR1, as it interacted with both TRPC3 and RyR1, and JPs showed subtype-specific interactions with both RyR1 and TRPC3 (JP1-RyR1 and JP2-TRPC3). These results support the hypothesis that TRPC3 and RyR1 are functionally engaged via linker proteins in skeletal muscle.

In excitable cells such as skeletal and cardiac myocytes excitation-contraction coupling is an important intermediate step between initiation of the action potential and induction of contraction. This process is predominantly controlled by Ca(2+) release from the sarcoplasmic reticulum via the ryanodine receptor. This very large protein (MW 560 kDa) exists as a homotetramer (~2.2 MDa) and is expressed in three isoforms: RyR1, expressed in skeletal muscle; RyR2, expressed in cardiac muscle; and RyR3, expressed in various cells at lower levels than the other isoforms. Release of Ca(2+) via RyR2 is induced by Ca(2+) influx through L-type Ca(2+) channels and is modulated by multiple factors, including phosphorylation of RyR2 protein by protein kinase A, calmodulin kinase II and FKBP12.6, and stimulation via the beta-adrenergic receptor signaling pathway. Hyperphosphorylation of RyR2 induces Ca(2+) leak during diastole, which can cause fatal arrhythmias and lead to heart failure. This makes RyR2 an important therapeutic target. Although there are few commercially available drugs that inhibit Ca(2+) leak from RyR2, K201 (JTV-519), a benzothiazepine derivative, has emerged as a new ryanodine receptor-selective agent that prevents atrial fibrillation, ventricular arrhythmias, heart failure and exercise-induced sudden cardiac death. In this review, we discuss recent advances in our understanding of the basic structure and function of ryanodine receptors, their involvement in heart disease, and the development of drugs to prevent ryanodine receptor malfunction and recent patents.

Calmodulin is a ubiquitous Ca2+ binding protein that binds to ryanodine rectors (RyR) and is thought to modulate its activity. Here we evaluated the effects of recombinant calmodulin on the rate of occurrence and spatial properties of Ca2+ sparks as an assay of activation in saponin-permeabilized mouse myofibers. Control myofibers exhibited a time-dependent increase and subsequent decrease in spark frequency. Recombinant wild-type calmodulin prevented the time-dependent appearance of Ca2+ sparks and decreased the derived Ca2+ flux from the sarcoplasmic reticulum during a spark by approximately 37%. A recombinant Ca2+-insensitive form of calmodulin resulted in an instantaneous increase in spark frequency as well as an increase in the derived Ca2+ flux by approximately 24%. Endogenous calmodulin was found to primarily localize to the Z-line. Surprisingly, removal of endogenous calmodulin did not alter the time dependence of Ca2+ spark appearance. These results indicate that calmodulin may not be essential for RyR1-dependent Ca2+ release in adult mammalian skeletal muscle.

The skeletal muscle (RyR1) and cardiac muscle (RyR2) ryanodine receptor calcium release channels contain a single, conserved calmodulin (CaM) binding domain, yet are differentially regulated by CaM. Here, we report that high-affinity [(35)S]CaM binding to RyR1 is driven by favorable enthalpic and entropic contributions at Ca(2+) concentrations from <0.01 to 100 microM. At 0.15 microM Ca(2+), [(35)S]CaM bound to RyR2 with decreased affinity and binding enthalpy compared with RyR1. The rates of [(35)S]CaM dissociation from RyR1 increased as the temperature was raised, whereas at 0.15 microM Ca(2+) the rate from RyR2 was little affected. The results suggest major differences in the energetics of CaM binding to and dissociation from RyR1 and RyR2.
