Abstract excerpt
Cardiac myosin-binding protein C (cMyBP-C) is a thick filament-associated protein of the sarcomere and a potential therapeutic target for treating contractile dysfunction in heart failure. Mimicking the structural dynamics of phosphorylated cMyBP-C by small-molecule drug binding could lead to therapies that modulate cMyBP-C conformational states, and thereby function, to improve contractility. We have developed a...
