Sequence-based mutation analysis
From Bioinformatikpedia
SNP's
Because the HFE-Gen has no annotated functional site, we can just adress the biochemical changes for each SNP. A change in functionality or stability can not described.
To compare the biochemical properties of the amino acid's, we used the very convenient function of wolfram alpha.
| Mutation | Position | Database | Blosum62 | PAM1 | Pam250 | Physicochemical changes |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| S/C | 65 | HGMD/dbSNP | -1 | 5 | 3 | There is no change in size and charge, just the polarity changes . |
| I/T | 105 | HGMD/dbSNP | -1 | 11 | 6 | An OH-group is replaced by an ethyl-group which leads so a small change in size and a large change in hydrophobicity. |
| Q/H | 127 | HGMD/dbSNP | 0 | 20 | 7 | |
| C/Y,S | 282 | HGMD/dbSNP | -2/-1 | 3/11 | 3/7 | |
| R/M | 330 | HGMD | -1 | 1 | 1 | |
| A/V | 176 | HGMD | 0 | 13 | 9 | |
| R/S | 6 | HGMD | -1 | 11 | 6 | |
| T/I | 217 | dbSNP | -1 | 7 | 4 | |
| M/T | 35 | dbSNP | -1 | 6 | 5 | |
| R/M | 58 | dbSNP | -1 | 1 | 1 |
SIFT
The prediction of SIFT is marked with a low confidence warning because, the sequences used for the prediction were not diverse enough.

We got three warning messages form SIFT for which we have no explanation at this time.
WARNING: Original amino acid H at position 31 is not allowed by the prediction. WARNING: Original amino acid S at position 45 is not allowed by the prediction. WARNING: Original amino acid Y at position 230 is not allowed by the prediction.
