Hypertrophic cardiomyopathy mutations Y115H and E497D disrupt the folded-back state of human beta-cardiac myosin allosterically
2024-03-03
Abstract excerpt
At the molecular level, clinical hypercontractility associated with many hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (HCM)-causing mutations in beta-cardiac myosin appears to be driven by their disruptive effect on the energy-conserving, folded-back, super relaxed (SRX) OFF-state of myosin. A pathological increase in force production results from release of heads from this OFF-state, which results in an increase in the number of...
