Abstract excerpt
Hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (HCM) is frequently caused by mutations in the cardiac myosin binding protein-C (cMyBP-C) encoding gene MYBPC3. In the Netherlands, approximately 25% of patients carry the MYBPC3c.2373InsG founder mutation. Most patients are heterozygous (MYBPC3+/InsG) and have highly variable phenotypic expression, whereas homozygous (MYBPC3InsG/InsG) patients have severe HCM at a young age. To...
