Arrhythmogenic calmodulin E105A mutation alters cardiac RyR2 regulation leading to cardiac dysfunction in zebrafish
( Wiley , 2019 , Article)Calmodulin (CaM) is a universal calcium (Ca )-binding messenger that regulates many vital cellular events. In cardiac muscle, CaM associates with ryanodine receptor 2 (RyR2) and regulates excitation-contraction coupling. ... -
The Arrhythmogenic E105A CAM Mutation Dysregulates Normal Cardiac Function in Zebrafish by Altering CAM-Ca2+ and CAM-RyR2 Interactions
( Elsevier , 2019 , Article)Calmodulin (CaM) is a multifunctional calcium (Ca2+)-binding messenger that directly interacts with the cardiac ryanodine receptor 2 (RyR2), a large transmembrane Ca2+ channel that mediates Ca2+ release from the sarcoplasmic ... -
Defective Interaction of Cam with RyR2 Cam-Binding Pocket Might Contribute to Arrhythmogenic Cardiac Disease
( Elsevier , 2020 , Article)Ryanodine receptor 2 (RyR2) is a large transmembrane calcium (Ca2+) release channel that mediates Ca2 release from the sarcoplasmic reticulum to activate cardiac muscle contraction. Calmodulin (CaM) regulation of RyR2 is ... -
