The α-cardiac actin M305L hypertrophic cardiomyopathy-causing mutation is located near residues that help confine tropomyosin to an inhibitory position along thin filaments. Here the authors assessed M305L actin in vivo, in vitro, and in silico to characterize emergent pathological properties and define the mechanistic basis of disease.
