The space between the t-tubule invagination and the sarcoplasmic reticulum (SR) membrane, the dyad, in ventricular myocytes has been predicted to experience very high [Ca2+] for short periods of time during a Ca2+ transient. The dyadic space accommodates many protein kinases responsible for the regulation of Ca2+ handling proteins of the cell. We show in vitro that cAMP-dependent protein kinase (PKA) is inhibited by high [Ca2+] through a shift in the ratio of CaATP/MgATP toward CaATP. We further generate a three-dimensional mathematical model of Ca2+ and ATP diffusion within dyad. We use this model to predict the extent to which PKA would be inhibited by an increased CaATP/MgATP ratio during a Ca2+ transient in the dyad in vivo. Our results suggest that under normal physiological conditions a myocyte paced at 1 Hz would experience up to 55% inhibition of PKA within the cardiac dyad, with inhibition averaging 5% throughout the transient, an effect which becomes more pronounced as the myocyte contractile frequency increases (at 7 Hz, PKA inhibition averages 28% across the dyad throughout the duration of a Ca2+ transient).
