Different outcome of sarcoglycan missense mutation between human and mouse [PDF]

, 2018
Sarcoglycanopathies are rare autosomic limb girdle muscular dystrophies caused by mutations in one of the genes coding for sarcoglycan (α, β, δ, and γ-sarcoglycans).

ThermoMutDB: a thermodynamic database for missense mutations [PDF]

Nucleic Acids Research, 2020
Abstract Proteins are intricate, dynamic structures, and small changes in their amino acid sequences can lead to large effects on their folding, stability and dynamics. To facilitate the further development and evaluation of methods to predict these changes, we have developed ThermoMutDB, a manually curated database containing >14,

Packpred: Predicting the functional effect of missense mutations [PDF]

Frontiers in Molecular Biosciences, 2021
1.AbstractPredicting the functional consequences of single point mutations has relevance to protein function annotation and to clinical analysis/diagnosis. We developed and tested Packpred that makes use of a multi-body clique statistical potential in combination with a depth dependent amino acid substitution matrix (FADHM) and positional Shannon ...

Missense mutations in DYT-TOR1A dystonia [PDF]

Neurology Genetics, 2019
DYT-TOR1A dystonia is caused by dominant mutations in the TOR1A gene, most frequently a heterozygous in-frame deletion in exon 5 (c.904_906delGAG; p.302/303delE).1 The most frequent phenotype has childhood onset in a limb, spreading to generalized dystonia within a few years.

Functional Consequences of PRODH Missense Mutations [PDF]

The American Journal of Human Genetics, 2005
PRODH maps to 22q11 in the region deleted in the velocardiofacial syndrome/DiGeorge syndrome (VCFS/DGS) and encodes proline oxidase (POX), a mitochondrial inner-membrane enzyme that catalyzes the first step in the proline degradation pathway. At least 16 PRODH missense mutations have been identified in studies of type I hyperprolinemia (HPI) and ...

Missense mutations of human homeoboxes: A review [PDF]

Human Mutation, 2001
The homeodomain (encoded by the homeobox) is the DNA-binding domain of a large variety of transcriptional regulators involved in controlling cell fate decisions and development. Mutations of homeobox-containing genes cause several diseases in humans. A variety of missense mutations giving rise to human diseases have been described.

Classification of Missense Mutations of Disease Genes [PDF]

Journal of the American Statistical Association, 2005
Clinical management of individuals found to harbor a mutation at a known disease-susceptibility gene depends on accurate assessment of mutation-specific disease risk. For missense mutations (MMs)-mutations that lead to a single amino acid change in the protein coded by the gene-this poses a particularly challenging problem.

Mutator phenotypes of common polymorphisms and missense mutations in MSH2 [PDF]

Current Biology, 1999
Hereditary non-polyposis colorectal cancer (HNPCC) is associated with germline mutations in the DNA mismatch repair gene hMSH2 [1], the human homologue of the Escherichia coli MutS gene. These are mostly nonsense, frameshift or deletion mutations that result in loss of intact protein and complete inactivation of DNA mismatch repair.

Biochemical Analysis of a Missense Mutation in Aceruloplasminemia [PDF]

Journal of Biological Chemistry, 2002
Aceruloplasminemia is an inherited neurodegenerative disease characterized by parenchymal iron accumulation secondary to loss-of-function mutations in the ceruloplasmin gene. To elucidate the molecular pathogenesis of aceruloplasminemia, the biosynthesis of a missense mutant ceruloplasmin (P177R) occurring in an affected patient was examined.

A new targeted CFTR mutation panel based on next-generation sequencing technology [PDF]

, 2017
Searching for mutations in the cystic fibrosis transmembrane conductance regulator gene (CFTR) is a key step in the diagnosis of and neonatal and carrier screening for cystic fibrosis (CF), and it has implications for prognosis and personalized therapy ...
