▶Furthering the link between the sarcomere and primary cardiomyopathies: Restrictive cardiomyopathy associated with multiple mutations in genes previously associated with hypertrophic or dilated cardiomyopathyCase reportCaleshu C. et al.(2011)· American Journal of Medical Genetics Part A
First report of mutations in TPM1, MYL3, and MYL2 genes associated with primary restrictive cardiomyopathy (RCM). Patient 1 carried homozygous p.Glu143Lys (rs104893750) in MYL3 and novel heterozygous p.Gly57Glu (rs2428140 variant site) in MYL2; Patient 2 carried homozygous p.Asn279His in TPM1. These case reports expand the association between sarcomere gene mutations and different cardiomyopathy phenotypes.
About MYL3
MYL3 encodes myosin light chain 3, an alkali light chain also referred to in the literature as both the ventricular isoform and the slow skeletal muscle isoform. Mutations in MYL3 have been identified as a cause of mid-left ventricular chamber type hypertrophic cardiomyopathy. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008]
