Threonine is a hydrophilic amino acid while Methionine is a hydrophobic amino acid. So the behaviour towards water changes. Also, Methionine has a very long sidechain while Threonine does not. So the structure of ARSA should be altered by this mutation.

Intro

We randomly picked 10 missense mutations from dbSNP and HGMD. The mutations are listed below, together with a pymol mutagenesis image and a description of the properties of the mutations.

mutation position reference mutation both
Asp-Asn 29
29 arsa asp.png
29 arsa asn.png
29 arsa both.png
Description of Asp-Asn
Aspartic acid (Asp)
Asparagine (Asn)

Aspartic acid is an acidic amino acid while Asparagine is a hydrophilic amino acid. So the mutation changes the behaviour towards water as well as the pH.

Pro - Ala 136
136 arsa PRO.png
136 arsa ALA.png
136 arsa both.png
Description of Pro-Ala
Proline (Pro)
Alanine (Ala)

Proline and Alanine are both hydrophobic amino acids. So the behaviour towards water does not change. As Proline is a cyclic amino acid, it can "break" alpha-helices and is structural very important. Alanine is one the the smallest amino acids and so the mutation from Pro to Ala should have a big influence on the structure of ARSA.

Gln-His 153
153 arsa GLN.png
153 arsa HIS.png
153 arsa both.png
Description of Gln-His
Glutamine (Gln)
Histidine (His)

Glutamine is a hydrophilic amino acid while Histidine is a basic amino acid. So the behaviour towards water changes as well as the charge of the amino acid. Also Gln and His are very different in structure, so His needs much more space than Gln, which should have a big influence on the structure of ARSA.

Trp-Cys 193
193 arsa TRP.png
193 arsa CYS.png
193 arsa both.png
Description of Trp-Cys
Tryptophan (Trp)
Cysteine (Cys)

Tryptophan is a hydrophobic, aromatic amino acid while Cysteine is a hydrophilic amino acid. So the behaviour towards water changes dramatically. Also, Trp is the largest amino acid while Cys is a rather small amino acid. So the space needed for the amino acid changes also. This should have a huge influence on the structure of ARSA.

Thr-Met 274
274 arsa THR.png
274 arsa MET.png
274 arsa both.png
Description of Thr-Met
Threonine (Thr)
Methionine (Met)

Threonine is a hydrophilic amino acid while Methionine is a hydrophobic amino acid. So the behaviour towards water changes. Also, Methionine has a very long sidechain while Threonine does not. So the structure of ARSA should be altered by this mutation.

SNAP

We ran snap using the following command:


snapfun -i ARSA.fasta -m mutants.txt -o snap.out

output:


nsSNP	Prediction	Reliability Index	Expected Accuracy
-----	------------	-------------------	-------------------
D29N	Non-neutral		7			96%
Q153H	 Neutral 		0			53%
T274M	Non-neutral		6			93%
T409I	Non-neutral		1			63%
C489G	Non-neutral		5			87%
W193C	Non-neutral		3			78%
F356V	 Neutral 		1			60%
N440S	Non-neutral		2			70%
R496H	 Neutral 		1			60%
P136A	Non-neutral		4			82%

In order to analyze all possible combinations of amino acid substitutions from the above mutated positions, we used the Generate Mutants tool on http://rostlab.org/services/snap/submit to create all possible exchanges from the following pattern: referenceAminoAcidPosition* . Then we again executed snap:


snapfun -i ARSA.fasta -m all_mutants.txt -o snap_all.out

Next, we wrote a perl script to parse and summarize the SNAP output in the following table, which shows which amino acid substitutions are Non-neutral or Neutral:

Multiple sequence alignments

First, we downloaded the HSSP file for ARSA to get all proteins, which are homologuous to it. Then we downloaded all mammalian protein sequences from Uniprot. This was achieved by searching for the term taxonomy:40674, which codes for all mammalian protein sequences. We saved all sequences in one multiple fasta file. Then we extracted all homologuous mammalian proteins to human ARSA by mapping the ids from the HSSP file to sequence ids in the multi fasta file. This yielded 75 homologuous mammalian sequences to human ARSA.
Next, we calculated a multiple sequence alignments of these proteins (including ARSA) with Muscle. The Jalview image of the alignment is shown below.
