    basic FUNCTION
  • playing a role in early development and in cell proliferation or regeneration
  • the ryanodine receptor (RyR) intracellular calcium release channel, are both required for normal muscle development and differentiation and for some calcium mobilization events in the embryo
  • plays a key role in redox homeostasis and human cell protection against oxidative stress
