MERIT: Systematic Analysis and Characterization of Mutational Effect on RNA Interactome Topology. [PDF]

open access: yesHepatology, 2019
The interaction between RNA‐binding proteins (RBPs) and RNA plays an important role in regulating cellular function. However, decoding genome‐wide protein–RNA regulatory networks as well as how cancer‐related mutations impair RNA regulatory activities in

Evolutionary accessibility of mutational pathways. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS Computational Biology, 2011
Functional effects of different mutations are known to combine to the total effect in highly nontrivial ways. For the trait under evolutionary selection ('fitness'), measured values over all possible combinations of a set of mutations yield a fitness ...

Updated benchmarking of variant effect predictors using deep mutational scanning

open access: yesMolecular Systems Biology, 2023
The assessment of variant effect predictor (VEP) performance is fraught with biases introduced by benchmarking against clinical observations. In this study, building on our previous work, we use independently generated measurements of protein function ...

A DSPP mutation causing dentinogenesis imperfecta and characterization of the mutational effect. [PDF]

open access: yesBiomed Res Int, 2013
Mutations in the DSPP gene have been identified in nonsyndromic hereditary dentin defects, but the genotype-phenotype correlations are not fully understood.

Variant effect predictions capture some aspects of deep mutational scanning experiments

open access: yesBMC Bioinformatics, 2020
Background Deep mutational scanning (DMS) studies exploit the mutational landscape of sequence variation by systematically and comprehensively assaying the effect of single amino acid variants (SAVs; also referred to as missense mutations, or non ...

Interpreting protein variant effects with computational predictors and deep mutational scanning

open access: yesDisease Models & Mechanisms, 2022
Computational predictors of genetic variant effect have advanced rapidly in recent years. These programs provide clinical and research laboratories with a rapid and scalable method to assess the likely impacts of novel variants.

Effect of random and hub gene disruptions on environmental and mutational robustness in Escherichia coli

open access: yesBMC Genomics, 2006
Background Genome-wide profiling has allowed the regulatory interaction networks of many organisms to be visualised and the pattern of connections between genes to be studied.

Mutational Biases Drive Elevated Rates of Substitution at Regulatory Sites across Cancer Types.

open access: yesPLoS Genetics, 2016
Disruption of gene regulation is known to play major roles in carcinogenesis and tumour progression. Here, we comprehensively characterize the mutational profiles of diverse transcription factor binding sites (TFBSs) across 1,574 completely sequenced ...

Towards Quantum-Chemical Level Calculations of SARS-CoV-2 Spike Protein Variants of Concern by First Principles Density Functional Theory

open access: yesBiomedicines, 2023
The spike protein (S-protein) is a crucial part of the severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2), with its many domains responsible for binding, fusion, and host cell entry.

INFLUENCE OF NANOPARTICLES (Ti, Ni, Si) ON INDICATORS OF INDUCED MUTATIONS OF DROSOPHILA MELANOGASTER

open access: yesBiota. Human. Technology, 2023
In recent years, interest in the role of nanoparticles has increased significantly, in particular, their ability to influence mutagenesis is being studied. Studying the effect of nanoparticles on the functioning of eukaryotes using the example of a test
