Ca2+-calmodulin increases RyR2 open probability yet reduces ryanoid association with RyR2

We have shown that physiological levels of Ca(2+)-calmodulin (Ca(2+)CaM; 50-100 nM) activate cardiac ryanodine receptors (RyR2) incorporated into bilayers and increase the frequency of Ca(2+) sparks and waves in cardiac cells. In contrast, it is well known that Ca(2+)CaM inhibits [(3)H]ryanodine bin...
