Lobe-Specific Calmodulin Binding to Different Ryanodine Receptor Isoforms
Bibliographic record
Abstract
Ryanodine receptors (RyRs) are large ion channels that are responsible for the release of Ca(2+) from the sarcoplasmic/endoplasmic reticulum. Calmodulin (CaM) is a Ca(2+) binding protein that can affect the channel open probability at both high and low Ca(2+) concentrations, shifting the Ca(2+) dependencies of channel opening in an isoform-specific manner. Here we analyze the binding of CaM and its individual domains to three different RyR regions using isothermal titration calorimetry. We compared binding to skeletal muscle (RyR1) and cardiac (RyR2) isoforms, under both Ca(2+)-loaded and Ca(2+)-free conditions. CaM can bind all three regions in both isoforms, but the binding modes differ appreciably in two segments. The results highlight a Ca(2+)/CaM and apoCaM binding site in the C-terminal fifth of the channel. This binding site is the target for malignant hyperthermia and central core disease mutations in RyR1, which affect the energetics and mode of CaM binding.

How this classification was reachedexpand
Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one teacher head, not a consensus.
