Abstract

Membrane vesicles enriched in both ryanodine receptor and dihydropyridine receptor were obtained from rabbit skeletal muscle and solubilized with 3-[(3-cholamidopropyl)dimethylammonio]-1-propanesulfonate. Analysis of the sedimentation behavior of the solubilized proteins showed the existence of a population of alpha 1 subunits of the dihydropyridine receptor which cosedimented with the ryanodine receptor. Solubilized proteins were immunoprecipitated with antibodies directed against either the ryanodine receptor or the alpha 1, alpha 2, or beta subunits of the dihydropyridine receptor. Immunoprecipitated proteins were identified by Western blot analysis and by specific labeling with [3H]ryanodine or [3H]PN200-110. Immunoprecipitation of the solubilized proteins with antibodies directed against the dihydropyridine receptor led to the coimmunoprecipitation of the ryanodine receptor. Conversely, immunoprecipitation with antibodies directed against the ryanodine receptor led to an immune complex containing both receptors, but these antibodies were unable to precipitate purified dihydropyridine receptor. These results demonstrate that ryanodine receptor and dihydropyridine receptor are present in the triad membrane preparation in a complex which may play an important role in excitation-contraction coupling.
