Abstract
Current electrophoretic methods have not been optimized to fully separate post‐translationally modified mutant forms of tropomyosin (Tm) from wild‐type cardiac samples. We describe here a method employing a modified 2‐D PAGE/2‐D DIGE protocol, to fully separate native, mutant (E54K), and phosphorylated forms of Tm. Our data demonstrate the first evidence of a significant (˜40%) decrease in Tm phosphorylation in transgenic compared to non‐transgenic mouse hearts, and indicate that altered phosphorylation may be a significant factor in the linkage of the E54K mutation to dilated cardiomyopathy.Keywords
