Ex-vivo phosphorylation/dephosphorylation experiments suggested that the divergent CaM regulation of healthy and failing human RyR2 was caused by differences in RyR2 phosphorylation by protein kinase A and Ca-CaM-dependent kinase II. Ca2+-spark measurements in murine cardiomyocytes harbouring RyR2 phosphomimetic or phosphoablated mutants at S2814 and S2808 suggest that phosphorylation of residues corresponding to either human RyR2-S2808 or S2814 is both necessary and sufficient for RyR2 regulation by CaM. Our results challenge the current concept that CaM universally functions as a canonical inhibitor of RyR2 across species. Rather, CaM's biological action on human RyR2 appears to be more nuanced, with inhibitory activity only on phosphorylated RyR2 channels, which occurs during exercise or in patients with heart failure.]]> Wed 24 Jun 2020 11:42:42 AEST ]]> Flecainide inhibits arrhythmogenic Ca²⁺ waves by open state block of ryanodine receptor Ca²⁺ release channels and reduction of Ca²⁺ spark mass https://ogma.newcastle.edu.au/vital/access/ /manager/Repository/uon:9879 Sat 24 Mar 2018 08:12:48 AEDT ]]>
