Analysis of the myoglobin gene in heart disease.

Human mutation - 1 Jan 1997

Abstract excerpt

Analysis of the myoglobin gene from a large number of patients with cardiac disease disclosed a single substantive mutation. However, no evidence of biochemical or physiological dysfunction due to this mutation was detected. We conclude that, within the limits of presently available techniques, myoglobin mutations are unlikely to contribute substantially to the genotypic background of cardiac disease in the...
