Abstract excerpt
Mutations in the gene coding for cardiac myosin binding protein-C (cMyBP-C), a multi-domain (C0-C10) protein, are a major causative factor for inherited hypertrophic cardiomyopathy. Patients carrying mutations in this gene have an extremely heterogeneous clinical course, with some progressing to end-stage heart failure. The cause of this variability is unknown. We here describe molecular modeling of a double...
