Structural Characterization of the C3 Domain of Cardiac Myosin Binding Protein C and Its Hypertrophic Cardiomyopathy-Related R502W Mutant
Bibliographic record
Abstract
Human cardiac myosin binding protein C (cMyBP-C), a thick filament protein found within the sarcomere of cardiac muscle, regulates muscle contraction and is essential for proper muscle function. Hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (HCM), a genetic disease affecting 1 in 500 people, is the major cause of death in young athletes. It is caused by genetic mutations within sarcomeric proteins. Forty-two percent of the HCM-related mutations are found in cMyBP-C. Here we present the nuclear magnetic resonance-derived structural ensembles of the wild-type cMyBP-C C3 domain and its HCM-related R502W mutant. The C3 domain adopts an immunoglobulin-like fold, and mutation of the exposed Arg502 to a tryptophan does not perturb its structure, dynamics, or stability. However, the R502W mutation does alter the predicted electrostatic properties of the C3 domain. We hypothesize that this mutation, and other HCM-linked mutations found within the same domain, may directly disrupt the interaction of cMyBP-C with other sarcomeric proteins.

Full frame machine prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. The Gemma side is a direct model label for every work in the frame, read from the title-only record. The Codex side is a classifier learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and calibrated to design-weighted sample rates; fields without enough sample support carry no Codex call. Candidate is the union of the two sides; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one source (direct Gemma or distilled Codex), not a consensus.
