Target Information

Dihydropyridine receptor (DHPR) is a surface membrane protein critical for the excitation-contraction coupling of striated muscle.
DHPR and the sarcoplasmic reticulum ryanodine receptor (RyR) are key components of intracellular junctions, where depolarization of the surface membrane is converted into the release of Ca²⁺ from internal stores.
The alpha1-subunit of DHPR contains a cytoplasmic loop involved in interactions with RyR.
Phosphorylation of the DHPR alpha1-subunit is thought to influence DHPR–RyR functional interaction.
Mutation in DHPR alpha1 results in excitation-contraction uncoupling, leading to muscular dysgenesis and loss of skeletal muscle activity.
Cells lacking RyR also lack excitation-contraction coupling and show reduced Ca²⁺ current density.
