Deciphering the Mechanism of Inhibition of SERCA1a by Sarcolipin Using Molecular Simulations

SERCA1a is an ATPase calcium pump that transports Ca2+ from the cytoplasm to the sarco/endoplasmic reticulum lumen. Sarcolipin (SLN), a transmembrane peptide, regulates the activity of SERCA1a by decreasing its Ca2+ transport rate, but its mechanism of action is still not well-understood. To deciphe...
