The nucleotide sequence of a 25.7 kilobase Drosophila melanogaster genomic DNA segment containing a gene for a ryanodine receptor/calcium release channel homologue has been determined. Computer analysis and partial cDNA cloning revealed 26 exons comprising the protein-coding sequence in this gene. The predicted protein is homologous in amino acid sequence and shares characteristic structural features with the mammalian ryanodine receptors. In blot hybridization analysis, a approximately 16 kilobase RNA species was identified abundantly in a 6-12 h embryo as the transcript from this gene. In situ hybridization to polytene chromosomes indicated that this gene locates at band position 44F on the second chromosome.
