Deep Characterization of a Greek Patient with Desmin-Related Myofibrillar Myopathy and Cardiomyopathy
Desmin is a class III intermediate filament protein highly expressed in cardiac, smooth and striated muscle. Autosomal dominant or recessive mutations in the desmin gene (<i>DES</i>) result in a variety of diseases, including cardiomyopathies and myofibrillar myopathy, collectively calle...
