PSSM
The complete matrix can be found here.
The given table provides the following data: <figtable id="TODO_ID">
| Mutation | wt | mt | ||
|---|---|---|---|---|
| PSSM-value | frequency | PSSM-value | frequency | |
| M35T | 3 | 16% | 5 | 78% |
| V53M | 5 | 99% | 1 | 1% |
| G93R | 3 | 29% | -2 | 1% |
| Q127H | 2 | 16% | -2 | 0% |
| A162S | 5 | 100% | 1 | 0% |
| L183P | 4 | 95% | -3 | 0% |
| T217I | 2 | 16% | -2 | 0% |
| R224W | 6 | 100% | -3 | 0% |
| E277K | 6 | 100% | 0 | 0% |
| C282S | 10 | 100% | -1 | 0% |
</figtable>
These values lead to our following conclusions:
M35T would not be predicted as a disease causing mutation as the mutant is occuring frequently.
V53M would most probably be predicted as a disease causing mutation, because the mutant type occurs more often than expected. Another evidence is the high wildtype conservation at this position. The only thing that does not fit the prediction is, that the mutation is seen more often than expected, which could be a sign of a non-disease-causing mutation.
G93R is hard to predict based on the given numbers, as the wildtype is not very conserved with 29%, but because the mutation gets a value of -2 (meaning the occurrence of this mutation is fewer than expected) this position is more likely to be disease causing. In total, 7 different amino acids were observed at this position (A, R, D, E, G, T, V).
Q127H, predicted by only the conservation of wild type and mutation would be quite difficult. The conclusion would be that (like for G93R) the position is disease causing because the mutant type occurrence is lower than expected. Another fact supporting this prediction is, that only 3 different amino acids are observed at position 127 (Q, E, G), which might be an indicator of the importance of this position for the protein.
A162S would be predicted as a disease causing mutation, based on the 100% conservation of the wild type.
L183P would be predicted as a disease causing mutation, based on the wildtype conservation (95%) and the low frequency of occurence (lower than expected) of the mutated position).
T217I is another difficult prediction case when only looking at wildtype and mutation type conservation. Probably it would be predicted as disease causing because of the lower-than-expected frequency of the mutant type. Another supporting fact for this prediction is, that only two amino acids were observed at that position, meaning the sequence is fairly conserved.
R224W would be predicted as a disease causing mutation because of the high wildtype conservation (100%), supported by the lower than expected frequency of the mutant type.
E277K would be predicted as a disease causing mutation because of the high wildtype conservation (100%).
C282S would be predicted as a disease causing mutation because of the high wildtype conservation (100%), supported by the lower than expected frequency of the mutant type.
MSA conservation
The following Table TODO has been retrieved through the MSAs of the HFE-sequence and homologs (found via PSIBlast). The MSAs can be seen here (Muscle MSA) and here (ClustalW MSA).

</figtable>
The multiple sequence alignments give the numbers in table TODO.
The predictions on these informations would be:
M35T: not disease causing (as the consensus in 98% of the positions T occurs)
V53M: disease causing
Q127H: disease causing
A162S: disease causing
L183P: disease causing
T217I: disease causing
R224W: disease causing
E277K: disease causing
C282S: disease causing
