Disease relevance of LMCD1

 

High impact information on LMCD1

  • The present report of 1484 patients with LMCD in the Coronary Artery Surgery Study (CASS) Registry extends the originally published 5-year surgical and medical group survival analysis to more than 16 years of follow-up and permits analysis of LMCD patient subgroups [4].
  • Median survival was also significantly longer in the surgical group stratified by age, sex, anginal class, left ventricular (LV) function, coronary anatomy, and the extent of LMCD [4].
  • The predicted LMCD1 protein contains a novel cysteine-rich domain residing in the amino-terminal region and two LIM domains with regular spacing in the carboxy-terminal region [5].
  • A new human LIM domain gene LMCD1 was identified from RT-PCR products, and partial sequencing of two expressed sequence tag clones flanking the assembled cDNA contig revealed a 1743-bp full-length cDNA with 1098-bp open reading frame [5].
  • Radiation hybrid mapping localized human LMCD1 to the telomeric region of chromosome 3p, and genetic mapping assigned the mouse Lmcd1 locus to the central region of chromosome 6 [5].
 

Biological context of LMCD1

  • Using molecular biology combined with in silico cloning, we have cloned the complete coding sequence of pig LIM and the cysteine-rich domain 1 gene (LMCD1) which encodes a 363 amino acid protein [6].
 

Associations of LMCD1 with chemical compounds

  • Three factors appeared related to the occurrence of MI: 1) abrupt propranolol withdrawal 24 hours prior to surgery (Prop) (32%, 33/103); 2) left main coronary artery disease (LMCD) (37%, 7/19); and 3) cardiopulmonary bypass longer than 60 minutes (CPB) (23%, 30/128) [7].
