Overview

Enhances the activity of ATP2A1/SERCA1 ATPase in sarcoplasmic reticulum by displacing ATP2A1/SERCA1 inhibitors, thereby acting as a key regulator of skeletal muscle activity. Does not directly stimulates SERCA pump activity. Enhances sarcoplasmic reticulum Ca2+ uptake and myocyte contractility by displacing the SERCA inhibitory peptides sarcolipin (SLN), phospholamban (PLN) and myoregulin (MRLN).

Subcellular Location

Sarcoplasmic reticulum membrane; Single-pass membrane protein

Expression

Highly expressed in heart (at protein level). Detected in heart and soleus, a postural muscle group of the hindlimb containing the highest enrichment of slow-twitch muscle fibers. Also expressed in diaphragm, which contains some slow-twitch fibers. Not detected in the quadriceps, a fast-twitch muscle group, or in cardiac atrial muscle. Not expressed in the prenatal heart but gradually increases in abundance postnatally.
