Abstract
Significance Excitation–contraction coupling (ECC) in vertebrate skeletal muscle depends upon specialized junctions at which Ca V 1.1, a voltage-gated channel in the plasma membrane, interacts with RyR1, a calcium release channel in the sarcoplasmic reticulum. Because calcium flux via Ca V 1.1 is unnecessary for ECC, Ca V 1.1 is thought to “conformationally couple” to RyR1. Studies of muscle cells with gene knockouts have shown that additional,...
