Genetically encoded lockdown of <scp>SERCA</scp> in the endoplasmic reticulum membrane arrests Ca ²⁺ signaling through proximity‐covalent crosslinking

signaling. This engineered lockdown enzyme remodels ER membrane protein architecture and restricts conformational dynamics, providing a versatile platform for long-term covalent control of intracellular signaling and a foundation for future therapeutic cellular applications. Impact statement Our proximity-based lockdown enzyme, engineered from microbial transglutaminase, provides a new strategy to covalently arrest the conformational states of organelle-resident membrane proteins in living cells, enabling long-term control of intracellular signaling and establishing a foundation for next-generation cellular therapeutics.
