Herp Reduces ER Calcium Content by Proteasomal Degradation of SERCA
Herp, an endoplasmic reticulum (ER) stress inducible protein, reduces ER Ca2+ content in neurons and prevents their apoptosis. An understanding of the mechanism by which Herp decreases ER Ca2+ content requires studies of Herp interacting proteins, which could be SERCA and the proteasome. Herp may …

Discovery and Characterization of Genes Involved in Muscle Calcium Handling
Muscle tissue requires continuous cycling of calcium release and clearance to generate and sustain contraction. When the plasma membrane of a muscle fiber becomes electrically excited, a voltage sensor in the membrane, called the dihydropyridine receptor (DHPR), becomes activated and signals to the …
