Functional implications of RyR-DHPR relationships in skeletal and cardiac muscles

Dihydropyridine receptors (DHPRs) and ryanodine receptors (RyRs) interact during EC coupling within calcium release units, CRUs. The location of the two channels and their positioning are related to their role in EC coupling. als DHPR and RyR1 of skeletal muscle form interlocked arrays. Groups of fo...
