Knockdown of fast skeletal myosin-binding protein C in zebrafish results in a severe skeletal myopathy
28 Mar 2016
Abstract excerpt
Myosin-binding protein C (MyBPC) in the muscle sarcomere interacts with several contractile and structural proteins. Mutations in the cardiac isoform (MyBPC-3) in humans, or animal knockout, are associated with cardiomyopathy. Function of the fast skeletal isoform (MyBPC-2) in living muscles is less understood. This question was addressed using zebrafish models, combining gene expression data with functional...
