Abstract

Cardiac myosin binding protein-C (cMyBP-C) has three phosphorylatable serines at N-terminus (Ser-273, Ser-282, and Ser-302) and phosphorylation states of these serines may alter the thick filament structure and function. Phosphorylation of these serines in cMyBP-C may also alter sarcomere length-dependent modulation of contractile force development (LDA), which would be expected to modulate the Frank-Starling Law of the Heart.
