Abstract
⺠F764L and S532P point mutations were engineered into mouse cardiac myosin. ⺠Dilated cardiomyopathy developed in heterozygous F764L/+ and S532P/+ mice. ⺠Myocardial strips exhibited higher rates of force development and MgATP binding. ⺠These alterations in myofilament function preceded development of DCM.
