2 facts about heart failure (HF) therapy: 1) HF occurs when heart muscle does not work; 2) no current HF therapy specifically targets heart muscle. Patients need new therapies that target the biology of failing heart muscle. #heartfailure

Image shows how the RPEL-like motif of GJA1-20k facilitates Connexin43 trafficking. Baum, Nguyen, @RobinShawCVRTI et al. ask how the Connexin43 gap junction channel knows how to arrive at its correct plasma membrane subdomain: https://t.co/rl5tltXhzO 🎥: https://t.co/olb8HvUj8F

Baum & Nguyen et al @NEH_CVRTI probe the mystery of delivery specificity for membrane proteins. They find Cx43 mRNA encodes a truncated isoform that caps #actin & patterns the delivery apparatus for targeted delivery of full-length channels https://t.co/eASexxGSgr

We are thrilled to publish our finding in @Jcellbiol that GJA1-20k functions as an actin capping protein, responsible for Targeted Delivery of full length Cx43 gap junctions. https://t.co/TnXDJPe2RZ We are one step closer to understanding specificity of membrane protein delivery
