Skeletal muscle contraction is triggered by Ca2+ release from the sarcoplasmic reticulum (SR) in response to plasma membrane (PM) excitation. In vertebrates, this depends on activation of the RyR1 Ca2+ pore in the SR, under control of conformational changes of Ca(V)1.1, located similar to 12 nm away in the PM. Over the last similar to 30 y, gene knockouts have revealed that Ca(V)1.1/RyR1 coupling requires additional proteins, but leave open the possibility that currently untested proteins are also necessary. Here, we demonstrate the reconstitution of conformational coupling in tsA201 cells by expression of Ca(V)1.1, beta 1a, Stac3, RyR1, and junctophilin2. As in muscle, depolarization evokes Ca2+ transients independent of external Ca2+ entry and having amplitude with a saturating dependence on voltage. Moreover, freeze-fracture electron microscopy indicates that the five identified proteins are sufficient to establish physical links between Ca(V)1.1 and RyR1. Thus, these proteins constitute the key elements essential for excitation-contraction coupling in skeletal muscle.
