The structure of excitation-contraction coupling in atrial cardiomyocytes
Standard local control theory, which describes Ca²⁺ release during excitation-contraction coupling (ECC), assumes that all Ryanodine Receptor (RyR) complexes are equivalent. Recent data from our laboratory has called this assumption into question. Specifically, we have shown that RyR complexes in...
