Reversal of Phospholamban Inhibition of the Sarco(endo)plasmic Reticulum Ca2+-ATPase (SERCA) Using Short, Protein-interacting RNAs and Oligonucleotide Analogs

The sarco(endo)plasmic reticulum Ca2+-ATPase (SERCA) and phospholamban (PLN) complex regulates heart relaxation through its removal of cytosolic Ca2+ during diastole. Dysfunction of this complex has been related to many heart disorders and is therefore a key pharmacological target. There are current...

Description
Summary:The sarco(endo)plasmic reticulum Ca2+-ATPase (SERCA) and phospholamban (PLN) complex regulates heart relaxation through its removal of cytosolic Ca2+ during diastole. Dysfunction of this complex has been related to many heart disorders and is therefore a key pharmacological target. There are currently no therapeutics that directly target either SERCA or PLN. It has been previously reported that single-stranded DNA binds PLN with strong affinity and relieves inhibition of SERCA in a length-dependent manner. In the current article, we demonstrate that RNAs and single-stranded oligonucleotide analogs, or xeno nucleic acids (XNAs), also bind PLN strongly (Kd
