Myotoxin α (MYTX), a polypeptide toxin purified from the venom of prairie rattlesnakes (Crotalus viridis viridis), induced Ca2+ release from the heavy fraction of skeletal sarcoplasmic reticulum (HSR), using a Ca2+ electrode. The effect of MYTX was nearly abolished by pretreatment with ryanodine, an alkaloid-based Ca2+ channel blocker. In the stopped-flow experiments, MYTX increased the choline+ permeability of HSR in the presence of calsequestrin (CS). Single channel recording experiments showed that in the presence of CS, the channel currents were markedly enhanced by MYTX applied to the cis side, but not to the trans side. However, in the absence of CS, MYTX failed to cause the excitatory effect in both the experiments. These results suggest that CS is essential for MYTX-induced Ca2+ release through the Ca2+ release channels in skeletal HSR.Key words: calsequestrin, myotoxin α, Ca2+ release, Ca2+ release channels, sarcoplasmic reticulum.
