Beyond the myosin mesa: a potential unifying hypothesis on the underlying molecular basis of hyper-contractility caused by a majority of hypertrophic cardiomyopathy mutations

2016-07-24

Abstract excerpt

<h4>Abstract:</h4> Hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (HCM), the most commonly occurring inherited cardiovascular disease, is primarily caused by mutations in human β-cardiac myosin and myosin binding protein-C. It has been thought that such mutations in myosin increase the intrinsic force of the motor, its velocity of contraction, or its ATPase activity, giving rise to hyper-contractility. We hypothesize that while the...
