ICa and transients were measured in freshly isolated ventricular cardiomyocytes of WT and S2030A+/+ knock-in mice. Peak ICa was recorded at different membrane potentials (from −40 to 0 mV or −25 to 0 mV) in control conditions (1.8 mM [Ca2+]o) and during 100 nmol/liter Iso application. The protocol shown in Fig. S2 was used to experimentally match the SR Ca2+ content between control and Iso in all cells. At matched SR Ca2+ load, the Ca2+ release in S2030A+/+ myocytes did not increase during Iso, suggesting a decreased RyRs sensitivity (see Fig. 1). Data are expressed as means ± SEM of n measurements.
