Rationally engineered Troponin C modulates in vivo cardiac function and performance in health and disease

Rationally engineered Troponin C modulates in vivo cardiac function and performance in health and disease

Heart contraction, which is decreased in disease, is determined by Ca2+binding to troponin C. Here, the authors combine a protein engineering approach with gene therapy to modulate heart contractility in mice with the use of rationally designed Troponin C variants, suggesting a new therapy for disea...
