Abstract excerpt
Hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (HCM) is an inherited form of heart disease, caused by specific mutations, many of which are encoded by the β-cardiac myosin (MYH7) protein. This work provides molecular insight into the effect of an HCM-causing mutation, R190T of β-cardiac myosin. The Arginine190 (R190) resides near the active site of the cardiac myosin and its alteration by a threonine (T190) residue leads to cardiac...
