Abstract excerpt
BACKGROUND: Nuclear envelope proteins play an important role in the pathogenesis of hereditary cardiomyopathies. Recently, a new form of arrhythmic cardiomyopathy caused by a homozygous mutation (p.L13R) in the inner nuclear membrane protein LEMD2 was discovered. The aim was to unravel the molecular mechanisms of mutant LEMD2 in the pathogenesis of cardiomyopathy. METHODS: We generated a Lemd2 p.L13R knock-in...
