Abstract excerpt
BACKGROUND: Fight or flight heart rate (HR) increases depend on protein kinase A (PKA)- and calmodulin kinase II (CaMKII)-mediated enhancement of Ca(2+) uptake and release from sarcoplasmic reticulum (SR) in sinoatrial nodal cells (SANC). However, the impact of specific PKA and CaMKII phosphorylation sites on HR is unknown. METHODS AND RESULTS: We systematically evaluated validated PKA and CaMKII target sites on...
