The myosin-binding protein C, cardiac-type is a protein that in humans is encoded by the MYBPC3 gene.[5] This isoform is expressed exclusively in heart muscle during human and mouse development,[6] and is distinct from those expressed in slow skeletal muscle (MYBPC1) and fast skeletal muscle (MYBPC2).
