Recently, our group described the causal association of dominant missense pathogenic variants in\n                    <jats:italic>MYBPC1<\/jats:italic>\n                    with an early-onset myopathy characterized by generalized muscle weakness, hypotonia, dysmorphia, skeletal deformities, and myogenic tremor, occurring in the absence of neuropathy.

Using a battery of phenotypic, behavioral, and physiological measurements spanning neonatal to young adult life, we found that heterozygous E248K mice faithfully recapitulated the onset and progression of generalized myopathy, tremor occurrence, and skeletal deformities seen in human carriers. Moreover, using a combination of biochemical, ultrastructural, and contractile assessments at the level of the tissue, cell, and myofilaments, we show that the loss-of-function phenotype observed in mutant muscles is primarily driven by disordered and misaligned sarcomeres containing fragmented and out-of-register internal membranes that result in reduced force production and tremor initiation. Collectively, our findings provide mechanistic insights underscoring the E248K-disease pathogenesis and offer a relevant preclinical model for therapeutic discovery.\n
