Abstract excerpt
Hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (HCM) is the most common heritable cardiomyopathy, historically believed to affect 1 of 500 people. MYBPC3 pathogenic variations are the most frequent cause of familial HCM and more than 90% of them introduce a premature termination codon. The current study aims to determine the prevalence of deep intronic MYBPC3 pathogenic variations that could lead to splice mutations. To improve...
