Waiting time distributions for clusters of receptors

Abstract: Inositol 1,4,5-trisphosphate (IP(3)R) receptor channels control release of Ca(2+) from the endoplasmic reticulum into the cytosol of a cell. The binding of both 1,4,5-trisphosphate (IP(3)) and activating Ca(2+) is required for the channel to open. At high Ca(2+) concentrations, IP(3)Rs are inhibited. IP(3)Rs are composed of four identical subunits and form in clusters. Many models have been proposed to describe how the binding of IP(3) and Ca(2+) to subunits results in the opening and closing of IP(3)Rs. Here … Show more

“…However, such a recovery timescale has not been observed with the local puff dynamics of IP 3 R clusters. Interpuff intervals (IPIs) exhibit a relative refractory period of a few seconds only [12,14,15,18,[33][34][35]. Hence, the negative feedback that determines the time scale of interspike intervals (ISIs) is different from the feedback contributing to IPI and requires global (whole cell) release events.…”

“…Quasi-equilibrium approximations based on separations of time-scales are used in obtaining the two-state CRU reduction. Recently, Higgins et al (2009) presented results which indicate that quasi-equilibrium assumptions introduces error into the statistics describing the activity of IP 3 receptors. However, their results indicate that the largest error for the expected closing time is obtained when the approximations are taken in the model in which sequential binding of IP 3 and Ca 2 + is assumed.…”
