Abstract excerpt
BACKGROUND: Mutations in at least 30 genes have been linked to hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (HCM). Due to the large size of the main HCM genes, Sanger sequencing is labor intensive and expensive. The purpose was to develop a next-generation sequencing (NGS) procedure for the main HCM genes. METHODS AND RESULTS: Multiplex amplification of the coding exons of MYH7,MYBPC3,TNNT2,TNNI3,ACTC1,TNNC1,MYL2,MYL3, and TPM1...
