ryanodine receptor complex

Definition

Target type: cellularcomponent

A voltage-gated calcium-release channel complex of the sarcoplasmic or endoplasmic reticulum. It plays an important role in the excitation-contraction (E-C) coupling of muscle cells. RyR comprises a family of ryanodine receptors, widely expressed throughout the animal kingdom. [GOC:ame, PMID:22822064]

The ryanodine receptor complex (RyR) is a large, multi-protein complex that plays a crucial role in calcium signaling in muscle cells. It is localized to the sarcoplasmic reticulum (SR), a specialized intracellular membrane network that stores calcium. The complex is composed of four identical RyR subunits, each of which is a transmembrane protein with a molecular weight of approximately 565 kDa. Each subunit contains several domains, including a large cytosolic domain that interacts with various regulatory proteins and a transmembrane domain that forms a channel through the SR membrane. The channel is responsible for the release of calcium from the SR into the cytoplasm in response to a variety of stimuli, including depolarization of the muscle membrane, mechanical stress, and signaling molecules. The RyR complex is highly regulated and its activity is influenced by a number of factors, including calcium itself, ATP, phosphorylation, and interaction with other proteins. It is essential for muscle contraction, and mutations in RyR genes can lead to a variety of muscle disorders. The cellular component of the RyR complex is therefore the sarcoplasmic reticulum (SR) membrane. The RyR complex is embedded within the SR membrane, with its cytosolic domain extending into the cytoplasm and its transmembrane domain forming a channel that spans the SR membrane. The complex plays a critical role in the regulation of calcium release from the SR, which is essential for muscle contraction.'
