Bio b11 lec 23 c15 signal transduction iii. Don"t memorize these, just be aware of em. Response = triggers muscle contraction, and heart beats. Yellow thing = membrane bound pumps, use atp. Calcium-induced calcium release occurring in cardiac muscle cell. A depolarization in membrane voltage causes the opening of voltage-gated calcium channels in the plasma membrane, allowing entry of a small. Fig 15-26: ca2+ floods cytoplasm of cardian muscle cell. amount of ca2+ into the cytosol (step1). The calcium ions bind to ryanodine receptors in the ser membrane (step 2), leading to release of stored ca2+ in the cytosol (step3), which triggers the cell"s contraction. Ca2+ ions are then removed from the cytosol by the action of ca2+ pumps located in the membrane of the. Ser (step4) and a na+/ca2+ secondary transport system in the plasms membrane (step 5), which leads to relaxation. This cycle is repeated after each heart beat.
