RyR2 shares close to 70% with 2 other mammalian RyR isoforms15: RyR1 and RyR3. RyR1
is predominantly found in skeletal muscle, where it is activated directly by the L-type Ca2+
channel (Cav1. 1) to release SR Ca2+ stores during skeletal muscle contraction. Mutations
in the RYR1 gene cause various muscle disorders, such as malignant hyperthermia or
central core diseases. 23
