Abstract excerpt
Dilated cardiomyopathy (DCM) is the most common form of cardiomyopathy and one of the most common causes of heart failure. TTN-truncating variants represent the most common cause of DCM. Similarly, among other prevalent DCM-causing genes, truncating variants were also frequently detected in BAG3, DSP, FLNC, and LMNA. For these four genes, the current study aims to determine the prevalence of deep intronic...
