Abstract excerpt
Phospholamban (PLB) is a small transmembrane protein that regulates calcium transport across the sarcoplasmic reticulum (SR) of cardiac cells. PLB self-associates into pentamers within sodium dodecyl sulfate (SDS) micelles, but the oligomeric status of PLB in SR membranes is not known. This work has shown that a mutant of PLB, with all native cysteine residues replaced by alanine (Ala-PLB), runs as a monomer on...
