Human hypertrophic cardiomyopathy mutation R712L suppresses the working stroke of cardiac myosin and can be rescued by omecamtiv mecarbil

2020-10-02

Abstract excerpt

Hypertrophic cardiomyopathies (HCMs) are the leading cause of acute cardiac failure in young individuals. Over 300 mutations throughout β-cardiac myosin, including in the motor domain, are associated with HCM. A β-cardiac myosin motor mutation (R712L) leads to a severe form of HCM. Actin-gliding motility of R712L-myosin is inhibited, despite near normal ATPase kinetics. By optical trapping, the working stroke of R...
