Prospective Echocardiographic and Tissue Doppler Imaging Screening of a Population of Maine Coon Cats Tested for the A31P Mutation in the Myosin-Binding Protein C Gene: A Specific Analysis of the Heterozygous Status
Background: A mutation in the sarcomeric gene coding for the myosin‐binding protein C gene has been identified in a colony of Maine Coon cats with hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (MyBPC3‐A31P mutation). However, the close correlation between genotype and phenotype (left ventricular hypertrophy [LVH] and...
