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.

Leu	Phe	consequences
aliphatic, hydrophobic, neutral	aromatic, hydrophobic, neutral	Leu is an aliphatic amino acid, wheras Phe is an aromatic amino acid. This means, that Phe has an aromatic ring in its structure. But both amino acids are relatively big and so it is possible, that the exchange of this amino acids do not change the structure of the protein that much. Therefore, we suggest it is possible, that the protein will work.

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 Leucine looks very different to Phenylalanine. Leucine forks at the end of the rest whereas Phenylalanine has an huge aromatical ring. The only thing that agrees is the orientation and the length of the res before the fork or the aromativ ring. All in all the difference probably prevails the agreement and therefore the mutation will probably caus changes in 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.
