The DWORF micropeptide enhances contractility and prevents heart failure in a mouse model of dilated cardiomyopathy

Calcium (Ca(2+)) dysregulation is a hallmark of heart failure and is characterized by impaired Ca(2+) sequestration into the sarcoplasmic reticulum (SR) by the SR-Ca(2+)-ATPase (SERCA). We recently discovered a micropeptide named DWORF (DWarf Open Reading Frame) that enhances SERCA activity by displ...
