The Role of Cardiac Myosin Binding Protein C3 in Hypertrophic Cardiomyopathy-Progress and Novel Therapeutic Opportunities.
نویسندگان
چکیده
Hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (HCM) is a common autosomal dominant genetic cardiovascular disorder marked by genetic and phenotypic heterogeneity. Mutations in the gene encodes the cardiac myosin-binding protein C, cMYBPC3 is amongst the various sarcomeric genes that are associated with HCM. These mutations produce mutated mRNAs and truncated cMyBP-C proteins. In this review, we will discuss the implications and molecular mechanisms involved in MYBPC3 different mutations. Further, we will highlight the novel targets that can be developed into potential therapeutics for the treatment of HMC. J. Cell. Physiol. 232: 1650-1659, 2017. © 2016 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

Structural characterization of the C3 domain of cardiac myosin binding protein C and its hypertrophic cardiomyopathy-related R502W mutant.
Human cardiac myosin binding protein C (cMyBP-C), a thick filament protein found within the sarcomere of cardiac muscle, regulates muscle contraction and is essential for proper muscle function. Hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (HCM), a genetic disease affecting 1 in 500 people, is the major cause of death in young athletes. It is caused by genetic mutations within sarcomeric proteins. Forty-two per...
متن کاملDilated cardiomyopathy in homozygous myosin-binding protein-C mutant mice
To elucidate the role of cardiac myosin-binding protein-C (MyBP-C) in myocardial structure and function, we have produced mice expressing altered forms of this sarcomere protein. The engineered mutations encode truncated forms of MyBP-C in which the cardiac myosin heavy chain-binding and titin-binding domain has been replaced with novel amino acid residues. Analogous heterozygous defects in hum...
متن کاملNovel splice donor site mutation in the cardiac myosin-binding protein-C gene in familial hypertrophic cardiomyopathy. Characterization Of cardiac transcript and protein.
Familial hypertrophic cardiomyopathy is a disease generally believed to be caused by mutations in sarcomeric proteins. In a family with hypertrophic cardiomyopathy linked to polymorphic markers on chromosome 11, we found a new mutation of a splice donor site of the cardiac myosin-binding protein-C gene. This mutation causes the skipping of the associated exon in mRNA from lymphocytes and myocar...
متن کاملSarcomere protein gene mutations in hypertrophic cardiomyopathy of the elderly.
BACKGROUND Hypertrophic cardiomyopathy, a familial myocardial condition caused by sarcomere protein mutations, is usually recognized by early adulthood. Hypertrophic cardiomyopathy of the elderly has similar clinical features but, notably, a later age of onset and noncontributory family history. Causes of elderly-onset hypertrophic cardiomyopathy are unknown. METHODS AND RESULTS Eighteen wome...
متن کاملModulation of cardiac performance by motor protein gene transfer.
Cardiac muscle performance can be determined by factors intrinsic to each cardiac muscle cell, such as protein isoform expression. One protein whose expression plays a major role in determining cardiac performance is myosin. Myosin is the heart's molecular motor which transduces the chemical energy from ATP hydrolysis into the mechanical energy of each heartbeat. Alterations of myosin isoform e...
