Popis: Background: Hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (HCM) is the most common inherited cardiac disease, and it has obvious genetic and clinical heterogeneity. Recently, heterozygous ALPK3 truncating variants (ALPK3tv) have been shown to cause HCM. However, the spectrum of ALPK3 variants and their relationships with the clinical characteristics of Chinese patients with HCM remain to be elucidated. Methods and results: Whole-exome sequencing data from 986 patients with HCM and 761 controls without HCM were utilized to analyze ALPK3 variants. Eleven ALPK3tv were detected in 18 patients with HCM (1.8 %), while no such variants were identified in controls. We also detected 21 rare ALPK3 missense variants in 16 patients with HCM (1.6 %) and 8 controls (1.1 %), respectively. ALPK3tv were significantly enriched in patients with HCM (P
