Microsomal sarcoplasmic reticulum (SR) fractions from lobster skeletal muscle were found to bind [3H]-ryanodine. [3H]-ryanodine binding was enhanced by AMP, Ca2+ and caffeine, and significantly diminished by ATP, Ba2+ and Sr2+. Furthermore, dantrolene and ruthenium red, two classical inhibitors of Ca2+ release from the SR, blocked [3H]-ryanodine binding. Similarly, tetracaine, known to block the charge movement associated with excitation-contraction coupling in vertebrate muscle, inhibited the binding of the alkaloid. Our lobster SR preparation exhibited a single high-affinity ryanodine binding site (Kd = 6.6 nM, Bmax = 10 pmol/mg protein). Since SDS-PAGE of the SR proteins revealed a major band c. 565 kDa which comigrated with the putative
ryanodine receptor
from both rat and chicken skeletal muscle, we concluded that lobster skeletal muscle is equipped with the 565 kDa
ryanodine receptor
. Finally, incorporation of the SR microsomal fraction from lobster into planar bilayer membranes revealed the presence of a ryanodine-sensitive Ca2+ channel activity (160 pS in symmetrical 200 mM CsCl solutions). We concluded that both the crustacean and vertebrate
skeletal muscle ryanodine receptor
share the relevant properties such as molecular weight and affinity for ryanodine and inositol 1,4,5 triphosphate. However, there are important differences between the two receptors including differential effects of the alkaloid on the Ca2+ release channel and modulation of the receptor by nucleotides.

cDNAs encoding trpE fusion proteins containing fragments of the skeletal muscle Ca2+ release channel (
ryanodine receptor
) were expressed in bacteria. The fusion proteins, which covered about 90% of the linear sequence of the
ryanodine receptor
, were used to identify calmodulin- (CaM), Ca(2+)-, and ruthenium red-binding regions in the
ryanodine receptor
through the use of 125I-CaM, 45Ca2+, and ruthenium red overlay procedures. Six Ca(2+)-dependent CaM-binding domains were detected in the
skeletal muscle ryanodine receptor
. Strong CaM-binding domains were localized in regions 6, 11, 12, and 13, in subregions 6b, 11b, and 13b, and in short sequences 6b3, 11b1, and 13b2, lying between amino acid residues 2063 and 2091, 3611 and 3642, and 4303 and 4328. Weaker CaM-binding domains were localized in regions 4, 9, and 10 and in subregions 4b, 9b, and 10a, lying between residues 921 and 1173, 2804 and 2930, and 2961 and 3084. Most of these CaM-binding domains encompassed all or part of previously predicted CaM-binding sites. Strong 45Ca(2+)- and ruthenium red-binding sites domains were localized in the NH2- and COOH-terminal regions of the
ryanodine receptor
and in regions 6, 12, and 13. The 45Ca(2+- and ruthenium red-binding sites in regions 6 and 12 were localized in subregions 6b and 12b, lying between residues 1861-2094 and 3657-3776. These data together with earlier studies (Chen, S. R. W., Zhang, L., and MacLennan, D. H. (1992) J. Biol. Chem. 267, 23318-23326), show that strong CaM-, Ca(2+)-, and ruthenium red-binding domains are colocalized in the
skeletal muscle ryanodine receptor
.

Anaesthesia-induced malignant hyperthermia (MH) may be caused by specific gene defects in the
skeletal muscle ryanodine receptor
. We have studied the frequency of occurrence of the C1840T mutation, analogous to the porcine mutation, and three mutations associated both with MH and central core disease (G7301A, C487T and C1209G). We investigated skeletal muscle specimens from up to 137 patients testing negative and 101 patients testing positive for MH susceptibility by the North American MH Group protocol. The presence or absence of the mutations was determined by polymerase chain reaction and restriction enzyme digestion. The frequencies of occurrence of the C1840T and C487T mutations were 2% and 1%, respectively, in MH-positive subjects and were the only two mutations identified. One subject with central core disease did not have any of the three mutations examined associated with this disorder. Therefore, the porcine and central core disease-associated mutations examined in the
ryanodine receptor
account for a small proportion (approximately 3%) of MH-positive diagnoses. The mutations examined did not occur in any of the MH-negative patients, supporting an association between defects in the
ryanodine receptor
and a positive diagnosis for MH.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS)

In the present paper we have defined putative functional domains of the
ryanodine receptor
Ca2+ channel. cDNA fragments of the
skeletal muscle ryanodine receptor
were fused in-frame with the Escherichia coli trpe protein and the resulting fusion proteins were evaluated for their ability to react with anti-(
ryanodine receptor
) antibodies, which are known to block Ca(2+)-dependent activation of the Ca(2+)-release channel. Anti-(
ryanodine receptor
) antibodies react with epitopes lying within a 245-amino-acid-long polypeptide which is located in a region (residues 4380-4625) encompassing most of myoplasmic loop 2, the predicted transmembrane segment M5 and part of the next lumenal loop (45 residues). Purification of the anti-(
ryanodine receptor
) antibodies by affinity chromatography led to the isolation of a population of antibodies which was capable of decreasing (by > 30%) the doxorubicin-induced Ca2+ release from isolated terminal cisternae. Polyclonal antibodies raised against a
ryanodine receptor
fusion encompassing part (198 out of 245 residues) of the immunopositive polypeptide decreased by 2-fold the first-order rate constant of Ca(2+)-induced 45Ca2+ efflux from isolated terminal cisternae. These results suggest strongly that the Ca(2+)-activating domain of the skeletal muscle Ca(2+)-release channel is close to, or associated with, myoplasmic loop 2.

Calmodulin (CaM) is a regulator of the calcium release channel (
ryanodine receptor
) of the sarcoplasmic reticulum of skeletal and cardiac muscle. The locations where CaM binds on the surface of the
skeletal muscle ryanodine receptor
were determined by electron microscopy. Wheat germ CaM was labeled specifically at Cys-27 with a maleimide derivative of a 1.4-nm-diameter gold cluster, and the gold-cluster-labeled CaM was bound to the purified
ryanodine receptor
. The complexes were imaged in the frozen-hydrated state by cryoelectron microscopy with no stains or fixatives present. In the micrographs, gold clusters were frequently observed near the corners of the square-shaped images of the ryanodine receptors. In some images, all four corners of the receptor were occupied by gold clusters. Image averaging allowed the site of CaM binding to be determined in two dimensions with an estimated precision of 4 nm. No changes were apparent in the quaternary structure of the
ryanodine receptor
upon binding CaM to the resolution attained, about 3 nm. Side views of the
ryanodine receptor
, in which the receptor is oriented approximately perpendicular to the much more frequent fourfold symmetric views, were occasionally observed, and showed that the CaM binding site is most likely on the surface of the receptor that faces the cytoplasm. We conclude that the CaM binding site is at least 10 nm from the transmembrane channel of the receptor and, consequently, that long-range conformational changes are involved in the modulation of the calcium channel activity of the receptor by CaM.

The membrane topology of the
skeletal muscle ryanodine receptor
(
RyR1
) was investigated using site-directed antibodies directed against amino acid sequences 2804-2930, 4581-4640, 4860-4886, and 4941-5037. Ab(2804-2930) bound with identical affinity to either closed or permeabilized sarcoplasmic reticulum vesicles, confirming the cytoplasmic location of this segment. Ab(4581-4640) did not bind to closed vesicles but bound well to permeabilized vesicles, supporting a lumenal location for this segment. Ab(4860-4886) did not bind to closed vesicles but exhibited weak binding to the permeabilized vesicles, suggesting that a portion of the epitope may be exposed on the lumenal surface. The C-terminal antibody (Ab(4941-5037)) bound weakly to closed vesicles, and binding was not significantly enhanced by permeabilizing vesicles with low concentrations of non-denaturing detergent. However, the C-terminal antibodies bound efficiently to vesicles which were transiently incubated at alkaline pH or subjected to trypsinolysis, conditions where few of the vesicles were permeabilized. These results support a model for the membrane topology of the
ryanodine receptor
as proposed by Takeshima et al. (Takeshima, H., Nishimura, S., Matsumoto, T., Ishida, H., Kangawa, K., Minamino, N., Matsuo, H., Ueda, M., Hanaoka, M., Hirose, T., and Numa, S. (1989) Nature 339, 439-445). The results also suggest that the native conformation of the C terminus is inaccessible to antibodies.

We have tested the periodate-oxidized ATP analogue 2',3'-dialdehyde adenosine triphosphate (oATP) as a ligand for the
skeletal muscle ryanodine receptor
/Ca(2+)-release channel. Ca2+ efflux from passively loaded heavy sarcoplasmic reticulum vesicles of skeletal muscle is biphasic. oATP stimulates the initial phase of Ca2+ release in a concentration-dependent manner (EC50 160 microM), and the efflux proceeds with a half-time in the range 100-200 ms. This oATP-modulated initial rapid Ca2+ release was specifically inhibited by millimolar concentrations of Mg2+ and micromolar concentrations of Ruthenium Red, indicating that the effect of oATP was mediated via the
ryanodine receptor
. The purified Ca(2+)-release channel was incorporated into planar lipid bilayers, and single-channel recordings were carried out to verify a direct interaction of oATP with the
ryanodine receptor
. Addition of oATP to the cytoplasmic side activated the channel with an EC50 of 76 microM, which is roughly 30-fold higher than the apparent affinity of ATP. The oATP-induced increase in the open probability of the
ryanodine receptor
displays a steep concentration-response curve with a Hill coefficient of approximately 2, which suggests a co-operativity of the ATP binding sites in the tetrameric protein. oATP binds to the
ryanodine receptor
in a quasi-irreversible manner via Schiff base formation between the aldehyde groups of oATP and amino groups in the nucleotide binding pocket. This allows for the covalent specific incorporation of [alpha-32P]oATP by borhydride reduction. A typical adenine nucleotide binding site cannot be identified in the primary sequence of the
ryanodine receptor
. Our results demonstrate that oATP can be used to probe the structure and function of the nucleotide binding pocket of the
ryanodine receptor
and presumably of other ATP-regulated ion channels.

The fluorogenic maleimide 7-diethylamino-3-(4'-maleimidylphenyl)-4-methylcoumarin (CPM) has been shown to selectively form Michael adducts with hyperreactive sulfhydryls on the skeletal sarcoplasmic reticulum (SR)
ryanodine receptor
(
RyR1
) and triadin which are essential for normal Ca2+ channel function (Liu, G., Abramson, J.J., Zable, A.C., and Pessah, I.N. (1994) Mol. Pharmacol. 45, 189-200). The present report demonstrates a functionally important interaction between
RyR1
and triadin which involves, in part, redox cycling of hyperreactive sulfhydryls in response to channel activation and inactivation. Nanomolar CPM is shown to selectively label
RyR1
and triadin only in the presence of Ca2+ channel inhibitors (Mg2+, neomycin, ruthenium red, or anti-triadin antibody). Treatment of SR with channel activators (micromolar Ca2+, nanomolar ryanodine, or millimolar caffeine), 1) slows CPM labeling kinetics > 10-fold, 2) negates CPM labeling of channel-associated sulfhydryls, and 3) stabilizes a high molecular weight complex (HMWC) which appears on nonreducing SDS-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis gels. The HMWC is positively identified as
RyR1
and triadin by Western blot and immunoprecipitation analyses. High-affinity [3H]ryanodine-binding sites are immunoprecipitated by either anti-
RyR1
or anti-triadin antibody dose dependently. 1,4-Naphthoquinone (< or = 40 pmol/micrograms protein) selectively oxidizes hyperreactive sulfhydryls on
RyR1
and triadin, induces Ca2+ efflux from SR, and stabilizes the HMWC. The HMWC is reduced by beta-mercaptoethanol or dithiothreitol into its component
RyR1
and triadin promoters. The results provide direct evidence for the existence of a functionally important complex between
RyR1
and triadin whose stability is determined by the redox state of hyperreactive sulfhydryl moieties which are allosterically regulated by physiological and pharmacological channel ligands. The present results suggest a possible molecular mechanism by which localized transient changes in the redox state within the
RyR1
-triadin complex can signal information across the SR membrane.

The
ryanodine receptor
is a channel for Ca2+ release from intracellular stores. By PCR analysis, we identified two alternatively spliced regions in mRNA of the mouse
skeletal muscle ryanodine receptor
(sRyR). The splice variants were characterized by the presence or absence of 15 bp (ASI) and 18 bp (ASII) exons. The exclusion of these exons results in the absence of the regions corresponding to Ala3481-Gln3485 and Val3865-Asn3870, respectively, of rabbit sRyR; these amino acid sequences exist in the modulatory region, where sites for phosphorylation and binding of Ca2+, calmodulin and ATP are postulated to be. We also detected sRyR in brain and heart as well as in skeletal muscle, and the splicing patterns were found to be tissue-specific. Only the ASII-lacking isoform was detected in heart, whereas in other tissues the ASII-containing isoform was predominant. The splicing patterns were also found to change during development. In skeletal muscle, the ASI-containing isoform increased gradually from embryo to adult. The ASII-lacking isoform abruptly increased upon birth, but the ASII-containing isoform increased steadily afterwards. In cerebrum, the ratio of the ASII-containing isoform to the ASII-lacking one increased abruptly during embryonic days 14 and 18. These findings suggest that the alternative splicing of ASI and ASII, by affecting the modulatory region, generates functionally different sRyR isoforms in a tissue-specific and developmentally regulated manner.

Ryanodine receptors (RyRs) are intracellular calcium release channels that participate in controlling cytosolic calcium levels. At variance with the probably ubiquitous inositol 1,4,5-trisphosphate-operated calcium channels (1,4,5-trisphosphate receptors), RyRs have been mainly regarded as the calcium release channels controlling skeletal and cardiac muscle contraction. Increasing evidence has recently suggested that RyRs may be more widely expressed, but this has never been extensively examined. Therefore, we cloned three cDNAs corresponding to murine RyR homologues to carry a comprehensive analysis of their expression in murine tissues. Here, we report that the three genes are expressed in almost all tissues analyzed, where tissue-specific patterns of expression were observed. In the uterus and vas deferens, expression of RyR3 was localized to the smooth muscle component of these organs. In the testis, expression of
RyR1
and RyR3 was detected in germ cells. RyR mRNAs were also detected in in vitro-cultured cell lines.
RyR1
, RyR2, and RyR3 mRNA were detected in the cerebrum and in the cerebellum. In situ analysis revealed a cell type-specific pattern of expression in the different regions of the central nervous system. The differential expression of the three
ryanodine receptor
genes in the central nervous system was also confirmed using specific antibodies against the respective proteins. This widespread pattern of expression suggests that RyRs may participate in the regulation of intracellular calcium homeostasis in a range of cells wider than previously recognized.
