Excitation-contraction coupling in skeletal muscle requires the release
of intracellular calcium ions (Ca$^2+$) through ryanodine receptor
(RyR1) channels in the sarcoplasmic reticulum. Half of the RyR1 channels
are activated by voltage-dependent Ca$^2+$ channels in the plasma
membrane. In planar lipid bilayers, RyR1 channels exhibited simultaneous
openings and closings, termed "coupled gating." Addition of the channel
accessory protein FKBP12 induced coupled gating, and removal of
FKBP12 uncoupled channels. Coupled gating provides a mechanism
by which RyR1 channels that are not associated with voltage-dependent
Ca$^2+$ channels can be regulated.
