Experimental details: Western blot analysis was performed on whole cell extracts (30 µg lysate) of DU-145 (Lane 1), L6 (Lane 2), U-87MG (Lane 3) and PANC 1 (Lane 4). The blots were probed with Anti- SERCA2ATPASE Mouse Monoclonal Antibody (Product # MA3-919, 1 in 1000 and detected by chemiluminescence Goat anti-Mouse IgG (H+L) Secondary Antibody, HRP conjugate (Product # 62-6520, 1:4000 dilution). A 110 kDa band corresponding to SERCA2ATPASE was observed across cell lines tested. Known quantity of protein samples were electrophoresed using Novex® NuPAGE®10 % Bis-Tris gel (Product # NP0301BOX), XCell SureLock™ Electrophoresis System (Product # EI0002) and Novex® Sharp Pre-Stained Protein Standard (Product # LC5800). Resolved proteins were then transferred onto a nitrocellulose membrane by iBlot® 2 Dry Blotting System (Product # IB21001).The membrane was probed with the relevant primary and secondary Antibody following blocking with 5 % skimmed milk. Chemiluminescent detection was performed using Pierce™ ECL Western Blotting Substrate (Product # 32106).

Experimental details: Knockdown of SERCA2 ATPase was achieved by transfecting A549 with SERCA2 ATPase specific siRNAs (Silencer® select Product # S1748). Western blot analysis (Fig. a) was performed using Whole cell extracts from the SERCA2 ATPase knockdown cells (lane 3), non-targeting scrambled siRNA transfected cells (lane 2) and untransfected cells (lane 1). The blot was probed with SERCA2 ATPase Monoclonal Antibody (2A7-A1) (Product # MA3-919, 1:1000 dilution ) and Goat anti-Mouse IgG (H+L) Superclonal™ Recombinant Secondary Antibody, HRP (Product # A28177, 1:4000 dilution). Densitometric analysis of this western blot is shown in histogram (Fig. b). Decrease in signal upon siRNA mediated knock down confirms that antibody is specific to SERCA2 ATPase.

Experimental details: Immunohistochemistry was performed on normal deparaffinized Human liver tissue tissues. To expose target proteins, heat induced antigen retrieval was performed using 10mM sodium citrate (pH6.0) buffer, microwaved for 8-15 minutes. Following antigen retrieval tissues were blocked in 3% BSA-PBS for 30 minutes at room temperature. Tissues were then probed at a dilution of 1:100 with a mouse monoclonal antibody recognizing SERCA2 ATPase (Product # MA3-919) or without primary antibody (negative control) overnight at 4°C in a humidified chamber. Tissues were washed extensively with PBST and endogenous peroxidase activity was quenched with a peroxidase suppressor. Detection was performed using a biotin-conjugated secondary antibody and SA-HRP, followed by colorimetric detection using DAB. Tissues were counterstained with hematoxylin and prepped for mounting.

Experimental details: Figure 2--figure supplement 3. DWORF binding to SERCA2a displaces PLN in a dose-dependent manner and enhances SERCA activity. ( A ) Immunoprecipitations of Myc-SERCA2a were performed on lysates of HEK293 cells co-transfected with equal amounts of HA-PLN and Myc-SERCA2a (1 ug) and increasing amounts of HA-DWORF. Western blots on input samples (bottom) and bound immunoprecipitated fractions (top) reveal that DWORF binding to SERCA2a competitively displaces PLN. ( B, C ) Ca 2+ -dependent Ca 2+ -uptake assays were performed using homogenates from HEK293 cells co-transfected with equal amounts of SERCA2a and PLN (1 ug) and increasing amounts of DWORF. Co-transfection of cells with PLN (dark grey line) results in a rightward shift of the Ca 2+ -affinity curve as compared to control cells (SERCA2a alone, black) ( B ). Co-transfection with increasing levels of DWORF relieves the inhibitory effect of PLN on SERCA2a in a dose-dependent manner as evidenced by a leftward shift of the affinity curve back toward control values. Cells expressing SERCA2a and DWORF in the absence of PLN do not exhibit enhanced SERCA activity (purple), indicating that DWORF exerts its' stimulatory effect on SERCA through the displacement of PLN.

Immunoblot (top) of mouse atrial (A) and ventricular (V) homogenate using an antibody to NCX1 in wildtype control (C) and atrial-specific NCX1 KO mice. There is complete absence of NCX1 protein in the immunoblot. The new band in the KO lanes at ~110 kDa represents nonfunctional NCX in KO atria after excision of exon 11 by Cre recombinase [13] . Ventricular expression of NCX1 is unaffected in atrial-specific KO mice. The bottom panel shows immunofluorescence of isolated SAN node myocytes from control (C) and KO hearts. Myocytes were co-immunolabled with antibodies against HCN4 and NCX1. Both control and KO SAN cells stained positive for HCN4, but only control SAN cells showed staining of NCX at the membrane. B .

( A ) Viral transduction was verified by mCherry live-cell expression in hiPSC-CM monolayers. Further, SERCA2a protein expression was determined by Western Blotting. Quantification indicates that SERCA2a protein expression was reduced in metabolic stress-treated hiPSC-CMs at baseline (MACS = 2.11 +- 0.22, n = 3 vs. metabolic stress = 1.27 +- 0.06, n = 3). AdSERCA2a treatment restored SERCA2a levels to control levels (metabolic stress plus Ad SERCA2a = 2.15 +- 0.17, n = 3; ANOVA, * P < 0.05).
