Structure-Function Relation of Phospholamban: Modulation of Channel Activity as a Potential Regulator of SERCA Activity

Phospholamban (PLN) is a small integral membrane protein, which binds and inhibits in a yet unknown fashion the Ca2+-ATPase (SERCA) in the sarcoplasmic reticulum. When reconstituted in planar lipid bilayers PLN exhibits ion channel activity with a low unitary conductance. From the effect of non-elec...
