Synthesis pass · prose summary of the discoveries below

RyR2 is the principal sarcoplasmic/endoplasmic reticulum Ca²⁺-release channel in cardiomyocytes and neurons, governing excitation–contraction coupling, metabolic signaling, and neuronal excitability. Cryo-EM structures show that channel gating involves breathing motions of the cytoplasmic N-terminal, Helical, and Handle domains coupled to Central domain rotations that dilate the pore (PMID:27708056); calmodulin constitutively binds RyR2 via its C-domain anchored to CaMBD2 while its N-domain acts as a dynamic Ca²⁺ sensor bridging CaMBD2/3, and this tonic inhibition is essential for preventing arrhythmogenic Ca²⁺ leak (PMID:30530841, PMID:24186966). CaMKIIδ phosphorylation at S2814 promotes a pathological open conformation with reduced CaM affinity and SR Ca²⁺ leak driving heart failure, atrial fibrillation, and ventricular tachycardia, while PKA phosphorylation at S2808 uncouples gating from cytosolic Ca²⁺ regulation (PMID:22511749, PMID:22158709, PMID:21274522); gain-of-function mutations enhance store overload-induced Ca²⁺ release and luminal Ca²⁺ sensitivity causing CPVT, whereas loss-of-function mutations abolish SOICR and cause Ca²⁺ release deficiency linked to ventricular fibrillation and left ventricular noncompaction (PMID:16239587, PMID:33825858, PMID:37325910).

2019 CaM inhibition of human RyR2 requires prior phosphorylation: physiological CaM concentrations inhibit RyR2 from failing (phosphorylated) but not healthy human hearts. Phosphomimetic (S2814D, S2808D) mutant cardiomyocytes show CaM-dependent Ca2+ spark regulation, whereas phosphoablated (S2814A, S2808A) mutants do not.

2019 All 14 arrhythmogenic calmodulin mutations tested diminish CaM-dependent inhibition of RyR2-mediated Ca2+ release and enhance SOICR in HEK293 cells; many also directly activate RyR2 rather than inhibiting it at elevated cytosolic Ca2+. The mutations alter the Ca2+-dependency of CaM binding to the RyR2 CaM-binding domain. HEK293 stable cell lines expressing human RyR2, single-cell Ca2+ imaging (SOICR assay), permeabilized cell Ca2+ release assay, CaM-binding domain fluorescence assay FEBS Journal High 31230402
2014 Enhanced CaM binding to RyR2 (using GSH-CaM with higher RyR2 affinity) corrects CPVT R2474S channel disorder: reduces Ca2+ spark frequency, DADs, triggered activity, and spontaneous Ca2+ transients in knock-in myocytes. The CPVT mutation reduces apparent CaM affinity for RyR2 in the presence of cAMP. R2474S knock-in mouse myocytes, fluorescent CaM (HiLyte Fluor) binding assay in permeabilized myocytes, patch clamp (DADs, triggered activity), confocal Ca2+ spark imaging Biochemical and Biophysical Research Communications Medium 24755079
2014 Calmodulin F90L mutation (associated with idiopathic ventricular fibrillation) reduces Ca2+-binding affinity and cooperativity, decreases RyR2 interaction, and causes defective modulation of [3H]ryanodine binding, indicating aberrant CaM-RyR2 interaction as the arrhythmogenic mechanism. Protein stability assay, Ca2+-binding fluorimetry, co-sedimentation/pulldown of CaM-RyR2, [3H]ryanodine binding modulation FEBS Letters Medium 25036739
2020 Loss of integrin β1D in ARVC leads to RyR2 Ser-2030 hyperphosphorylation and aberrant Ca2+ handling. Purified integrin β1D directly stabilizes RyR2 by decreasing open probability, mean open time, and increasing mean close time in lipid bilayer recordings. β1D-KO mice develop catecholamine-sensitive polymorphic VT without structural abnormalities. Lipid bilayer single-channel patch clamp with purified integrin β1D protein + RyR2, β1D cardiac KO mice, Ca2+ imaging, Western blotting for RyR2 phosphorylation, protein mass spectrometry Circulation High 32122157
2021 RyR2 loss-of-function mutations E4146K and G4935R are linked to ventricular fibrillation/sudden death. E4146K markedly suppresses caffeine activation, abolishes SOICR, and severely reduces both cytosolic and luminal Ca2+ activation of single channels. G4935R completely abolishes caffeine activation and [3H]ryanodine binding; G4935R exerts dominant-negative impact on wild-type RyR2 in co-expression studies. HEK293 cell Ca2+ release assay (SOICR), single-channel lipid bilayer recordings, [3H]ryanodine binding, co-expression dominant-negative assay Bioscience Reports High 33825858
2016 RyR2 clusters in the periphery of live ventricular myocytes show irregular, dynamic distribution (unlike ordered interior arrays). Peripheral cluster movements are modulated by extracellular Ca2+, RyR2 activator (caffeine), and inhibitor (tetracaine), and peripheral clusters are functionally active for Ca2+ release. GFP-tagged RyR2 knock-in mouse, confocal imaging + TIRF microscopy, time-lapse imaging, simultaneous Ca2+/GFP imaging Biophysical Journal Medium 29401432
2018 In vivo CRISPR/Cas9 (SaCas9) delivered by AAV9 specifically disrupts the disease-causing R176Q RyR2 allele in neonatal cardiomyocytes, normalizes enhanced Ca2+ spark frequency, and completely prevents catecholamine-induced ventricular arrhythmias in CPVT mice. No off-target editing of the wild-type allele was detected. AAV9-delivered SaCas9 in vivo genome editing in R176Q/+ knock-in mice, targeted deep sequencing, confocal Ca2+ spark imaging, in vivo arrhythmia telemetry Circulation Research High 30355031
2009 Gain-of-function RyR2 R176Q mutation causes increased spontaneous Ca2+ release in neonatal cardiomyocytes, increased ventricular ectopy, and higher incidence of sudden death in young knock-in mice, without changes in other Ca2+-handling protein expression levels, indicating that Ca2+ leak through mutant RyR2 underlies arrhythmogenesis.

2023 RyR2 loss-of-function mutation I4855M+/- in mice causes left ventricular noncompaction (LVNC), abolishes SR store overload-induced Ca2+ release, increases peak Ca2+ transient (elevated Ca2+-induced Ca2+ release gain) and end-diastolic Ca2+, with elevated phospho-CaMKII. The I4855M mutation in HEK293 cells inhibited caffeine-induced Ca2+ release and had dominant-negative impact on wild-type RyR2.

2022 CD38 expression on exhausted CD8+ T cells elevates intracellular Ca2+ through RyR2 calcium channel activation, promoting chronic AKT activation and TCF1 loss, leading to terminal exhaustion. RyR2 knockdown in CD8+ T cells maintained TCF1 levels and improved anti-tumor response and anti-PD1 responsiveness in mice. scRNA-seq, genetic CD38/RyR2 knockdown in T cells, intracellular Ca2+ measurements, AKT/TCF1 immunoblotting, in vivo tumor models PNAS Medium 38451948
2019 LINC00472/miR-24/JP2/RyR2 signaling pathway contributes to atrial fibrillation pathogenesis. miR-24 directly binds and negatively regulates JP2, which stabilizes RyR2 expression. Reduced LINC00472 (via promoter methylation in AF patients) increases miR-24, reducing JP2 and consequently RyR2 expression in cardiomyocytes. Dual-luciferase reporter assay, real-time PCR, Western blot, IHC in HCM and H9C2 cells, AF patient samples Biomedicine & Pharmacotherapy Low 31562981
2018 RyR2 mutation R4496C is located in a loop involved in inter-subunit interactions in the tetrameric structure; A165D (CPVT mutation) is in the same loop and disrupts conformational stability, favoring closed-to-open state transition and enhanced SR Ca2+ release. Structural analysis combined with functional studies in A165D knock-in mice confirmed this loop as a common CPVT pathogenic hotspot. A165D knock-in mice, structural analysis docked to cryo-EM RyR2 maps, SR Ca2+ release measurements, DAD recordings in cardiomyocytes Journal of Molecular and Cellular Cardiology Medium 29477366
