Mapping co-regulatory interactions among ligand-binding sites in ryanodine receptor 1.

ABSTRACT: Ryanodine receptor 1 (RyR1) is an intracellular calcium ion (Ca²⁺ ) release channel required for skeletal muscle contraction. Although cryo-electron microscopy identified binding sites of three coactivators Ca²⁺ , ATP, and caffeine (CFF), the mechanism of co-regulation and synergy of these activators is unknown. Here, we report allosteric connections among the three ligand-binding sites and pore region in (i) Ca²⁺ bound-closed, (ii) ATP/CFF bound-closed, (iii) Ca²⁺ /ATP/CFF bound-closed, and (iv) Ca²⁺ /ATP/CFF bound-open RyR1 states. We identified two dominant networks of interactions that mediate communication between the Ca²⁺ -binding site and pore region in Ca²⁺ bound-closed state, which partially overlapped wi
