REEP5 depletion causes sarco-endoplasmic reticulum vacuolization and cardiac functional defects

The sarcoplasmic (SR) and endoplasmic reticulum (ER) are involved in heart development but how this arises is unclear. Here, the authors show that loss of a SR/ER protein REEP5 causes membrane destabilization and decreased cardiac myocyte contractility, with cardiac dysfunction in mutant mouse and z...
