Diagram of human titin regions and locations of mutations in the half sarcomere. The single titin molecules extend from the Z-line to the M-line in the middle of the sarcomere. The I-band region background is shown in yellow and the A-band region in white. Each number listed refers to a single titin mutation in the corresponding exon annotated in GenBank AJ277892. The mutation for the knockin-mouse report in the current issue [30] is denoted with an asterisk.
