Biophysical properties of human β-cardiac myosin with converter mutations that cause hypertrophic cardiomyopathy
2016-07-26
Abstract excerpt
Hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (HCM) affects 1 in 500 individuals and is an important cause of arrhythmias and heart failure. Clinically, HCM is characterized as causing hyper-contractility, and therapies are aimed toward controlling the hyperactive physiology. β-cardiac myosin comprises ~40 percent of genetic mutations associated with HCM and the converter domain of myosin is a hot spot for HCM-causing mutations, bu...
