Pysicochemical Properities

First of all, we explored the amino acid properties and compared them for the original and the mutated amino acid. Therefore we created the possible effect that the mutation could have on the protein.

Trp	Arg	consequences
aromatic, polar, hydrophobic, neutral	positive charged, polar, hydrophilic	Trp is very big, because of two aromatic rings in its structure. Furthermore, it is hydrophobic, whereas, Arg is a hydrophilic amino acid. Therefore, the changes in the 3D structure might be extreme and delete the function of the protein.

Visualisation of the Mutation

In the next step, we created the visualization of the muation with PyMol. Therefore we created a picture for the original amino acid, for the new mutated amino acid and finally for both together in one picture whereas the mutation is white colored. The following pictures display that the mutated amino acid Arginine looks very different to Tryptophan. Tryptophan has two huge aromatical rings. Contrary, Aspartate is also a long amino acid and forks at the end of the rest. Furthermore, Arginige is also orientated in a completly different direction. Because of the aromatical rings the differences between these two amino acids is realy huge. Therefore, the amino acids will probably cause drastical effects on protein structure and function.

SIFT Prediction

SIFT Matrix:
Each entry contains the score at a particular position (row) for an amino acid substitution (column). Substitutions predicted to be intolerant are highlighted in red.

SIFT Table
Threshold for intolerance is 0.05.
Amino acid color code: nonpolar, uncharged polar, basic, acidic.
Capital letters indicate amino acids appearing in the alignment, lower case letters result from prediction.
