RYR2 and cardiac arrhythmia: Our results suggest that the ability of calmodulin to discriminate between RyR1 an RyR2 targets depends on kinetic discrimination and robust allosteric communication between Ca2+-binding sites (EF1-EF3 and EF3-EF4 pairs), which is perturbed in both N97I and Q135P arrhythmia-associated variants.
