Abstract

We examined nine exons of transforming growth factor β receptor type 1 (TGFβR1) gene in patients with chronic heart failure with different types of heart remodelling. We identified two missense mutations (c.457G>A (p.V1531) and c.1285A>C (p.Y229S)) and two synonym substitutions (c.1125A>C (p.Y377Y) and c.516A>G (p.S172S)), as well as polymorphisms at splicing site c.1024+24G>A (rs334354). Substitutions c.1285A>C (p.Y229S) and c.516A>G (p.S172S) were not previously described.
