Abstract excerpt
Naturally occurring mutations of a calcium ion transporter can cause a skin condition known as Darier's disease. In this issue of JBC, Mikkelsen et al. describe a particularly interesting Darier's mutation that alters calcium transport by disrupting a kinetic braking mechanism that is unique to the SERCA2b calcium pump isoform. The study provides new insight into the intrinsic regulation of this transporter and...
