MYH7 (Myosin-7) variants and mutations

MYH7 (also known as Myosin-7) is a human protein-coding gene encoding a myosin-7 protein. Its beta-myosin motor converts ATP hydrolysis into force within cardiac and slow-skeletal-muscle sarcomeres. Pathogenic variants are major causes of hypertrophic and dilated cardiomyopathy and can also produce inherited skeletal myopathies. This analysis covers 3,534 MYH7 variants and mutations. Of these, 97% have computational variant effect predictions. Disease context includes hypertrophic cardiomyopathy, congenital myopathy 7A, myosin storage, autosomal dominant, and left ventricular noncompaction. Example MYH7 variants include M1T, M1V, and G2A.
