A mouse model of myosin binding protein C human familial hypertrophic cardiomyopathy.

Abstract: Familial hypertrophic cardiomyopathy can be caused by mutations in genes encoding sarcomeric proteins, including the cardiac isoform of myosin binding protein C (MyBP-C), and multiple mutations which cause truncated forms of the protein to be made are linked to the disease. We have created transgenic mice in which varying amounts of a mutated MyBP-C, lacking the myosin and titin binding domains, are expressed in the heart. The transgenically encoded, truncated protein is stable but is not incorporated efficien… Show more

“…A line was selected whose expression levels matched the previously generated cMyBP-C WT mice. Approximately 35% replacement with cMyBP-C AllPϩ occurred in line 34, which is equivalent to the level of replacement previously measured in the cMyBP-C WT -expressing hearts [line 21 (16)] that expressed myc-tagged WT cMyBP-C (Fig. 6, which is published as supporting information on the PNAS web site).…”

“…For example, myosin-binding protein C (MyBP-C) is a component of the thick filament and is distributed every 43 nm within the C-zone of the sarcomere, where the cross-bridges are found (Offer et al, 1972). Transgenic mice expressing truncated MyBP-C that lacks the myosin-binding site in cardiac muscle exhibit significant sarcomere disorganization (Yang et al, 1998 nerve in the two groups of mice. 10 d later the animals were killed, and extracts of the gastrocnemius muscles were prepared.…”

“…Furthermore, while sedimentation studies indicate that cMyBP-C does not bind to myosin subfragment 1 (S1) [3], the C0-C1 domains may interact with the myosin head and affect contractile function [7,8]. The importance of cMyBP-C in fiber assembly, maintenance of structural integrity, and regulation of contraction is highlighted by the fact that mutations in cMyBP-C are one of the most commonly identified causes of familial hypertrophic cardiomyopathy [9][10][11].…”
