Ryanodine receptor knowledge page
About
Landing page for the ryanodine receptor (Ryr).
Its major function is to create calcium-induced calcium release (CICR): the channel mediates the release of calcium from the sarcoplasmic reticulum into the cytosol, leading to the triggering of muscle contraction following depolarization of T-tubules in the same cell.
