Abstract
⺠Calcineurin regulates MEF2 activity in striated muscle. ⺠mAKAP is a calcineurin scaffold in striated muscle. ⺠The mAKAP/calcineurin interaction can be disrupted using a competitive binding peptide. ⺠Disruption of the interaction prevents differentiation-induced MEF2 gene transcription in C2C12 cells. ⺠Disruption of the interaction also prevents induction of cardiac hypertrophy in neonatal cardiac myocytes.
