Summary
PLN (phospholamban, HGNC:9080) is a protein-coding gene on chromosome 6q22.31, encoding Phospholamban (P26678). Reversibly inhibits the activity of ATP2A2/SERCA2 in cardiac sarcoplasmic reticulum by decreasing the apparent affinity of the ATPase for Ca(2+).
The protein encoded by this gene is found as a pentamer and is a major substrate for the cAMP-dependent protein kinase in cardiac muscle. The encoded protein is an inhibitor of cardiac muscle sarcoplasmic reticulum Ca(2+)-ATPase in the unphosphorylated state, but inhibition is relieved upon phosphorylation of the protein. The subsequent activation of the Ca(2+) pump leads to enhanced muscle relaxation rates, thereby contributing to the inotropic response elicited in heart by beta-agonists. The encoded protein is a key regulator of cardiac diastolic function. Mutations in this gene are a cause of inherited human dilated cardiomyopathy with refractory congestive heart failure, and also familial hypertrophic cardiomyopathy.

- SERCA2a and phospholamban bind to S100A1 in the human heart (PMID:12804600)
- The frequency-dependent phosphorylation of Ser16-PLB may favor an increase in Ca2+ transient and force generation in humans. (PMID:14530977)
- This study concludes that phospholamban (PLB) increases the maximal activity (Vmax) of calcium (Ca2+)-ATPase, and that the magnitude of this effect is sensitive to mutation. A region of mutant PLB responsible for this regulatory property is identified. (PMID:15736939)
- The unusual bellflower-like assembly is held together by leucine/isoleucine zipper motifs along the membrane-spanning helices. (PMID:16043693)

- Human PLN may play a more inhibitory role than that of other species in Ca2+ cycling. Expression of human PLN in the mouse is compensated by alterations in Ca2+-handling proteins and cardiac remodeling in an effort to normalize cardiac contractility. (PMID:16476846)
- Mutations in the phospholamban gene are not a frequent cause of hypertrophic and idiopathic dilated cardiomyopathy. (PMID:16829191)
- Phospholamban in the human esophagus might be of less importance for regulation of SERCA than in heart. Lower expression of calsequestrin and calreticulin might contribute to increased lower esophageal sphincter pressure in achalasia. (PMID:17009399)
- Gene expression of PLB was studied in children with congenital heart defects. (PMID:17515962)
- A truncation mutant was identified in PLN. (PMID:17655857)
- The structure and dynamics of PLN pentamer was compared in its unphosphorylated and pseudo-phosphorylatd states. (PMID:17766390)
- analysis of phospholamban in oriented lipid bilayers using 15N solid-state NMR spectroscopy (PMID:17905829)

Function. Reversibly inhibits the activity of ATP2A2/SERCA2 in cardiac sarcoplasmic reticulum by decreasing the apparent affinity of the ATPase for Ca(2+). Binds preferentially to the ATP-bound E1 conformational form of ATP2A2 which predominates at low Ca(2+) concentrations during the diastolic phase of the cardiac cycle. Inhibits ATP2A2 Ca(2+) affinity by disrupting its allosteric activation by ATP. Modulates the contractility of the heart muscle in response to physiological stimuli via its effects on ATP2A2. Modulates calcium re-uptake during muscle relaxation and plays an important role in calcium homeostasis in the heart muscle. The degree of ATP2A2 inhibition depends on the oligomeric state of PLN. ATP2A2 inhibition is alleviated by PLN phosphorylation. Also inhibits the activity of ATP2A3/SERCA3. Controls intracellular Ca(2+) levels in elongated spermatids and may play a role in germ cell differentiation. In the thalamic reticular nucleus of the brain, plays a role in the regulation of sleep patterns and executive functioning.
Subunit / interactions. Homopentamer. Can also form heterooligomers with other sarcoplasmic/endoplasmic reticulum calcium ATPase (SERCA) regulators ARLN, ERLN, SLN and STRIT1/DWORF. Monomer. Interacts with HAX1. Interacts as a monomer with ATP2A2; the interaction decreases ATP2A2 Ca(2+) affinity. Interacts with VMP1; VMP1 competes with PLN and SLN to prevent them from forming an inhibitory complex with ATP2A2. Interacts with S100A1 in a Ca(2+)-dependent manner.
Subcellular location. Endoplasmic reticulum membrane. Sarcoplasmic reticulum membrane. Mitochondrion membrane. Membrane.
Tissue specificity. Heart muscle (at protein level).
Post-translational modifications. Phosphorylation by PKA abolishes the inhibition of ATP2A2-mediated calcium uptake. Phosphorylated at Thr-17 by CaMK2, and in response to beta-adrenergic stimulation. Phosphorylation by DMPK may stimulate sarcoplasmic reticulum calcium uptake in cardiomyocytes. Palmitoylated by ZDHHC16, promoting formation of the homopentamer. In elongated spermatids, proteolytically cleaved by SPPL2C which modulates intracellular Ca(2+) homeostasis.
Disease relevance. Cardiomyopathy, dilated, 1P (CMD1P) [MIM:609909] A disorder characterized by ventricular dilation and impaired systolic function, resulting in congestive heart failure and arrhythmia. Patients are at risk of premature death. The disease is caused by variants affecting the gene represented in this entry. Cardiomyopathy, familial hypertrophic, 18 (CMH18) [MIM:613874] A hereditary heart disorder characterized by ventricular hypertrophy, which is usually asymmetric and often involves the interventricular septum. The symptoms include dyspnea, syncope, collapse, palpitations, and chest pain. They can be readily provoked by exercise. The disorder has inter- and intrafamilial variability ranging from benign to malignant forms with high risk of cardiac failure and sudden cardiac death. The disease is caused by variants affecting the gene represented in this entry.
Miscellaneous. For practical reasons, PLN activity is most often studied with ATP2A1 instead of ATP2A2.
Similarity. Belongs to the phospholamban family.
