Allelic imbalance and haploinsufficiency in MYBPC3-linked hypertrophic cardiomyopathy [PDF]
Mutations in cardiac myosin binding protein C (MYBPC3) represent the most frequent cause of familial hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (HCM), making up approximately 50% of identified HCM mutations. MYBPC3 is distinct among other sarcomere genes associated with HCM in that truncating mutations make up the vast majority, whereas nontruncating mutations ...

Characterization of heterozygous and homozygous mouse models with the most common hypertrophic cardiomyopathy mutation MYBPC3 c.2373InsG in the Netherlands [PDF]
Hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (HCM) is frequently caused by mutations in the cardiac myosin binding protein-C (cMyBP-C) encoding gene MYBPC3. In the Netherlands, approximately 25% of patients carry the MYBPC3 c.2373InsG founder mutation.

Prevalence of cardiac myosin-binding protein C3 mutations in Maine Coon cats with hypertrophic cardiomyopathy [PDF]
Background and Aim: Hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (HCM) is a common heart problem that affects many cats. Although cats with HCM are symptomatic, some die suddenly or develop congestive heart failure.

Computational prediction of protein subdomain stability in MYBPC3 enables clinical risk stratification in hypertrophic cardiomyopathy and enhances variant interpretation [PDF]
Purpose: Variants in MYBPC3 causing loss of function are the most common cause of hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (HCM). However, a substantial number of patients carry missense variants of uncertain significance (VUS) in MYBPC3.

MYBPC3 gene variations in hypertrophic cardiomyopathy patients in India [PDF]
Hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (HCM) is a complex cardiac muscular disorder, inherited as an autosomal dominant disease with variable penetrance. Cardiac myosin-binding protein C (MyBPC) is the predominant myosin-binding protein isoform in the heart muscle. One hundred forty-seven mutations have been detected in MYBPC3, accounting for 15% of all HCM cases.

RationaleMutations in MYBPC3 encoding cardiac myosin binding protein C are common genetic cause of hereditary cardiac myopathies. An intronic 25-bp deletion in MYBPC3 at 3' region is associated with dilated (DCM) and hypertrophic (HCM) cardiomyopathies ...

Is haploinsufficiency a sufficient mechanism for MYBPC3 truncating mutations?
Reduced expression of MYBPC3 causes early dysfunction in human cell culture models prior to reduced cMyBP-C levels.

Genetic variants in MYBPC3 are one of the most common causes of hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (HCM). While variants in MYBPC3 affecting canonical splice site dinucleotides are a well-characterised cause of HCM, only recently has work begun to investigate ...

An interesting Mybpc3 heterozygous mutation associated with bicuspid aortic valve [PDF]
Bicuspid aortic valve (BAV) is a common congenital heart defect (0.5-2.0% in the adult), potentially an onset factor of aortic stenosis (AS). Increasing evidence demonstrates that genetic risk factors play a key role in the pathogenesis of BAV, but the genetic basis underlying this cardiac malformation remains poorly understood.Whole exome sequencing ...
