1.A.50.4.6
DWARF or STRIT1 of 35 aas and 1 TMS. DWARF interacts with SERCA and phospholamban (PLB), counteracting the inhibitory effect of PLB on SERCA (Rustad et al. 2023). It enhances the activity of the ATP2A1/SERCA1 ATPase in the sarcoplasmic reticulum by displacing ATP2A1/SERCA1 inhibitors, thereby acting as a key regulator of skeletal muscle activity. It does not directly stimulate SERCA pump activity, but it enhances sarcoplasmic reticulum Ca2+ uptake and myocyte contractility by displacing the SERCA inhibitory peptides sarcolipin (SLN), phospholamban (PLN) and myoregulin (MRLN).
