A functional investigation of mutations associated with hypertrophic and dilated cardiomyopathy
2008-01-01
Abstract excerpt
The mutations E361G and E99K in the cardiac actin gene cause dilated and hypertrophic cardiomyopathy respectively. Transgenic mouse models have been developed that over-express these mutations in their hearts. Mutant protein was expressed at 50% of to tal actin. Thin filaments were reconstituted with mouse actin, human cardiac tropomyosin and troponin, and studied by in vitro motility assay. Phosphorylated E361G a...
