Analysis of HCM in an understudied population reveals a new mechanism of pathogenicity

2020-03-26

Abstract excerpt

Hypertrophic Cardiomyopathy (HCM) is an inherited disease characterized by genetic and phenotypic heterogeneity. MYH7 represents one of the main sarcomere-encoding genes associated with HCM. Missense variants in this gene cause HCM through gain-of-function actions, whereby variants produce an abnormal activated protein which incorporates into the sarcomere as a ‘poison peptide’. Here we report a frameshift variant...
