    Abstract:
    Triadin, a calsequestrin-anchoring transmembrane protein of the sarcoplasmic reticulum (SR), was successfully purified from the heavy fraction of SR (HSR) of rabbit skeletal muscle with an anti-triadin immunoaffinity column. Since depletion of triadin from solubilized HSR with the column increased the [3H]ryanodine binding activity, we tested a possibility of triadin for a negative regulator of the ryanodine receptor/Ca2+ release channel (RyR). Purified triadin not only inhibited [3H]ryanodine binding to the solubilized HSR but also reduced openings of purified RyR incorporated into the planar lipid bilayers. On the other hand, calsequestrin, an endogenous activator of RyR [Kawasaki and Kasai (1994) Biochem. Biophys. Res. Commun. 199, 1120-1127; Ohkura et al. (1995) Can. J. Physiol. Pharmacol. 73, 1181-1185] potentiated [3H]ryanodine binding to the solubilized HSR. Ca2+ dependency of [3H]ryanodine binding to the solubilized HSR was reduced by triadin, whereas that was enhanced by calsequestrin. Interestingly, [3H]ryanodine binding to the solubilized HSR potentiated by calsequestrin was reduced by triadin. Immunostaining with anti-triadin antibody proved that calsequestrin inhibited the formation of oligomeric structure of triadin. These results suggest that triadin inhibits the RyR activity and that RyR is regulated by both triadin and calsequestrin, probably through an interaction between them. In this paper, triadin has been first demonstrated to have an inhibitory role in the regulatory mechanism of the RyR.
