Amino acid substitutions hydrophilizing the core of titin domains cause dilated cardiomyopathy
2023-06-03
Abstract excerpt
<h4>ABSTRACT</h4> The underlying genetic defect in most cases of dilated cardiomyopathy (DCM), a common inherited heart disease, remains unknown. Intriguingly, many patients carry single missense variants of uncertain pathogenicity targeting the giant protein titin, a fundamental sarcomere component. To explore the deleterious potential of these variants, we first solved the wild-type and mutant crystal structure...
