Background Information
MYH6 encodes the alpha-cardiac myosin heavy chain (aMHC) which is a major contractile protein exclusively expressed in the myocardium of the heart. Expression of MYH6 is down-regulated in cardiac myopathy and failing hearts. Defects in MYH6 lead to congenital heart disease (CHD), and a spectrum of phenotypes ranging from hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (HCM) and dilated cardiomyopathy (DCM). (15737621, 20656787)
