Abstract
En 中文
• FLNC-M82K variant was identified in two unrelated dilated cardiomyopathy patients. • Biophysical analyses on M82K reveals reduced thermal stability, increased aggregation and impaired actin-binding. • Treatment with cycloheximide showed reduced protein stability in FLNC-M82K. • Expression in neonatal-rat cardiomyocytes reveals Z-disc localisation of FLNC-M82K with no evidence for aggregation • An integrated framework offering mechanistic insights for interpretating VUS in cardiomyopathy-associated genes.
