Abstract excerpt
BACKGROUND: Pathogenic TNNT2 variants are a cause of hypertrophic and dilated cardiomyopathies, which promote heart failure by incompletely understood mechanisms. The precise functional significance for 87% of TNNT2 variants remains undetermined, in part, because of a lack of functional genomics studies. The knowledge of which and how TNNT2 variants cause hypertrophic and dilated cardiomyopathies could improve...
