Phenotypes of myopathy-related beta-tropomyosin mutants in human and mouse tissue cultures.

Mutations in TPM2 result in a variety of myopathies characterised by variable clinical and morphological features. We used human and mouse cultured cells to study the effects of β-TM mutants. The mutants induced a range of phenotypes in human myoblasts, which generally changed upon differentiation t...
