Indicates cardiac RyR FKBP12.6 selectivity unlike skeletal muscle; hypothesis-generating for tissue-specific EC coupling differences.
The cardiac ryanodine receptor selectively binds FKBP12.6, which may reflect a fundamental difference in the modulation of excitation-contraction coupling in heart versus skeletal muscle.
Timerman et al. (1996) studied this question.
