Fast skeletal myosin binding protein-C expression exacerbates dysfunction in heart failure

Abstract excerpt

During heart failure, gene and protein expression profiles undergo extensive compensatory and pathological remodeling. We previously observed that fast skeletal myosin binding protein-C (fMyBP-C) is upregulated in diseased mouse hearts. While fMyBP-C shares significant homology with its cardiac paralog, cardiac myosin binding protein-C (cMyBP-C), there are key differences that may affect cardiac function....
