In order to study the conductances of the Sarcoplasmic Reticulum (SR) membrane, microsomal fractions from cardiac SR were isolated by differential and sucrose gradient centrifugations and fused into planar lipid bilayers (PLB) made of phospholipids. Using either KCl or K-gluconate solutions, a large

Rapid mixing-vesicle ion flux and planar lipid bilayer-single channel measurements have shown that a high-conductance, ligand-gated Ca2+ release channel is present in 'heavy', junctional-derived membrane fractions of skeletal and cardiac muscle sarcoplasmic reticulum. Using the release channel-speci
The purified ryanodine receptor channel of the sheep cardiac muscle sarcoplasmic reticulum (SR) membrane functions as a calcium-activated cation-selective channel under voltage-clamp conditions following reconstitution into planar phospholipid bilayers. We have investigated the effects of the tetra-
