30 Mar 2017
Abstract excerpt
Background— Recent exome sequencing studies identified filamin C ( FLNC ) as a candidate gene for hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (HCM). Our aim was to determine the rate of FLNC candidate variants in a large cohort of HCM patients who were also sequenced for the main sarcomere genes. Methods and Results— A total of 448 HCM patients were next generation–sequenced (semiconductor chip technology) for the MYH7, MYBPC3 ,...
