Brief description Skeletal muscle diseases result in debilitating muscle loss and may result from an error (mutation) within a gene. Mutations in FHL1 were identified as the cause of four different muscle diseases. Using purified FHL1, skeletal muscle cells and animal models we will investigate how FHL1 mutations cause muscle wasting, and loss of muscle strength.
