The human cardiac ryanodine receptor gating behaviour : a study of mechanisms

Rhythmic contraction of cardiac myocytes is maintained by precisely controlled Ca2+ efflux from intracellular stores mediated by the cardiac ryanodine receptor (RyR2). Mutations in RyR2 result in perturbed Ca2+ release that can trigger arrhythmias. RyR2- dependent ventricular tachyarrhythmia is an i...
