Task description

A detailed task description can be found here: Mapping point mutations

SNP databases

HGMD

  • HGMD
  • Searched for PAH
  • 429 Missense/Nonsense mutations known by HGMD Professional

There are several mutation types known for PAH:

  • Missense/nonsense
  • Splicing
  • Regulatory
  • Small deletions
  • Small insertions
  • Small indels
  • Gross deletions
  • Gross insertions/duplications
  • Complex rearrangements

One additional category of mutation is known, but is not recorded for PAH

  • Repeat variations

Reference Sequence

The reference sequence is given by the accession number NM_000277.1, whose entry contains the following amino acid sequence:

SNPs

SNPdb

Methodology

Retrieving Data

We searched in dbSNP for silent mutations in coding regions. This means we only considered those SNPs which alter the triplet but not the amino acid.

Results

We could find the following silent mutations in dbSNP:

Identifier AA-Position Reference Triplet Mutated Triplet Reference Allele Mutated Allele Frame Reference Residue Mutated Residue

Comparing the annotation of HGMD and SNPdb

Alignment of the reference sequences

We decided to use the sequence of PAH of Uniprot (see UniProt).

Alignment with the reference sequence used in HGMD

The resulting alignment shows a 100% identity without any gaps. Therefore it is a "self-alignment".
