الوصف: In cardiac ventricular myocytes, events crucial to excitation-contraction coupling take place in spatially restricted microdomains known as dyads. The movement and dynamics of calcium (Ca 2+) ions in the dyad have often been described by assigning continuously valued Ca 2+ concentrations to one or more dyadic compartments. However, even at its peak, the estimated number of free Ca 2+ ions present in a single dyad is small ( ~ 10-100 ions). This in turn suggests that modeling dyadic calcium dynamics using laws of mass action may be inappropriate. In this study, we develop a model of stochastic molecular signaling between L-type Ca 2+ channels (LCCs) and ryanodine receptors (RyR2s) that describes: a) known features of dyad geometry, including the space-filling properties of key dyadic proteins; and b) movement of individual Ca 2+ ions within the dyad, as driven by electro-diffusion. The model enables investigation of how local Ca 2+ signaling is influenced by dyad structure, including the configuration of key proteins within the dyad, the location of Ca 2+ binding sites and membrane surface charges. Using this model, we demonstrate that LCC-RyR2 signaling is influenced by both the stochastic dynamics
