Ryanodine receptor 3; RYR-3; RyR3; brain-type ryanodine receptor; brain ryanodine receptor-Ca+2 release channel (RYR3, HBRR)
Function:
- Ca+2 channel
- mediates release of Ca+2 from the sarcoplasmic reticulum into the cytoplasm in muscle, thus plays a role in triggering muscle contraction
- mediates Ca+2-induced Ca+2 release from the endoplasmic reticulum in non-muscle cells
- may regulate Ca+2 release by other Ca+2 channels
- contributes to cellular Ca+2 homeostasis (putative)
- role in cellular Ca+2 signaling
- communication between transverse-tubules & sarcoplasmic reticulum
- contraction of skeletal muscle is triggered by release of Ca+2 from SR following depolarization of T-tubules (putative)
- Ca+2 release channel is modulated by Ca+2, Mg+2, ATP & calmodulin
- channel activity is modulated by the alkaloid ryanodine
- ryanodine binds to the open Ca+2-release channel with high affinity
- at low concentrations, ryanodine maintains the channel in an open conformation
- at high concentrations, ryanodine inhibits channel activity
- channel activity is regulated by calmodulin
- the Ca+2 release is activated by elevated cytoplasmic Ca+2 levels in the micromolar range, by caffeine & adenine nucleotides, such as AMP & ATP
- homotetramer, heterotetramer with RYR2
- interacts with CALM (putative)
- interacts with FKBP1A
Inhibition:
- inhibited by Mg+2 & ruthenium red (putative)
Structure:
- homotetramer (putative)
- belongs to the ryanodine receptor family
- contains 3 B30.2/SPRY domains
- contains 1 EF-hand domain
- contains 5 MIR domains
- Ca+2 release channel activity resides in the C-terminal region while the remaining part of the protein constitutes the 'foot' structure spanning the junctional gap between the SR & the T-tubule; it is possible that the foot structure interacts with the cytoplasmic region of the dihydropyridine receptor
Compartment:
- sarcoplasmic reticulum membrane
- microsome membrane
- multi-pass membrane protein
- the number of predicted transmembrane domains varies between orthologs, but both N-terminus & C-terminus seem to be cytoplasmic (putative)
Alternative splicing: named isoforms=3
Expression:
- expressed in brain, skeletal muscle, placenta & possibly liver & kidney
- in brain, highest levels are found in the cerebellum, hippocampus, caudate nucleus & amygdala, with lower levels in the corpus callosum, substantia nigra & thalamus
