Abstract excerpt
Dilated cardiomyopathy (DCM) is a leading cause of heart failure and a major indicator for heart transplant. Human genetic studies have identified over a thousand causal mutations for DCM in genes involved in a variety of cellular processes, including sarcomeric contraction. A substantial clinical challenge is determining the pathogenicity of novel variants in disease-associated genes. This challenge of...
