Understanding mechanisms underlying titin regulation in cardiac muscle function is of
critical importance given recent compelling evidence that highlight titin mutations as major
determinants of human cardiomyopathy. We previously identified a cardiac biomechanical
stress-regulated complex at the cardiac-specific N2B region of titin that includes four-and-a-
half LIM domain protein-1 (Fhl1) and components of the mitogen-activated protein signaling
cascade, which impacted muscle compliance in Fhl1 knock-out cardiac muscle. However …
