Molecular and functional characterization of a human frataxin mutation found in hypertrophic cardiomyopathy.

Abstract excerpt

Hypertrophic cardiomyopathy is associated with marked genetic and phenotypic heterogeneity. Pathogenic mutations in the 10 hypertrophic cardiomyopathy-associated sarcomeric genes cause autosomal dominant disease as a rule, although recessive disease has been reported. Cardiac hypertrophy is also a hallmark of Friedreich ataxia, an autosomal recessive disease caused by deficiency of the mitochondrial protein...
