Alternative splicing of RyR1 alters the efficacy of skeletal EC coupling

Abstract: SummaryAlternative splicing of ASI residues (Ala 3481 -Gln 3485 ) in the skeletal muscle ryanodine receptor (RyR1) is developmentally regulated: the residues are present in adult ASI(+)RyR1, but absent in the juvenile ASI(-)RyR1 which is over-expressed in adult myotonic dystrophy type 1 (DM1). Although this splicing switch may influence RyR1 function in developing muscle and DM1, little is known about the properties of the splice variants. We examined excitation-contraction (EC) coupling and the structure and … Show more

“…Notably, we cannot rule out that amelioration of muscle relaxation also relies on splicing-independent mechanisms. In particular, changes in sodium-and calcium-activated potassium channels or in Ca 2+ homeostasis, which have also been suggested to contribute to myotonia in DM1 (55)(56)(57)(58)(59)(60), may mediate some of the observed effect. Consistently, AMPK has been shown to modulate chloride and potassium channels in several cell types, including cardiomyocytes (61,62).…”

“…One possible explanation for the divergence in EC-coupling deficit seen in myotubes and adult FDB fibers from heterozygous R163C mice is that adult fibers have more developed Ca 2ϩ release units than myotubes (Flucher and Franzini-Armstrong, 1996). Moreover, myotubes express RyR1 splice variants not found in adult fibers that magnify depolarization-dependent Ca 2ϩ release (Kimura et al, 2009). Alternatively, myotubes express a high-conductance ␣1 Cav 1.1 isoform not found in adult fibers (Tuluc et al, 2009).…”

“…The longer t EMG-MMG in DM1 may be explained by the alteration in the splicing of several proteins, such as SERCA1 and CACNA1S, involved in Ca 2+ homeostasis and in excitation-contraction coupling mechanism [6][7][8][9][10] thus possibly leading to a lengthened duration of the dihydropyridine and ryanodine receptors interaction, Ca 2+ release by sarcoplasmic reticulum, and troponin activation [9,10,35].…”

“…Experimental evidence demonstrates that an alteration in the splicing of several proteins involved in Ca 2+ homeostasis and in excitation-contraction coupling mechanisms may play a pivotal role [6][7][8][9][10]. Myotonia is characterised by a state of pathologically enhanced muscle excitability, in which involuntary trains of action potentials cause a delay in muscle relaxation after contraction [11].…”
