Approaches to predicting effects of single amino acid substitutions on the function of a protein.

Abstract excerpt

The relative activities of 313 mutants of the gene V protein of bacteriophage f1, assayed in vivo, have been used to evaluate two approaches to predicting the effects of single amino acid substitutions on the function of a protein. First, we tested methods that only depend on the properties of the wild-type and substituting amino acids. None of the properties or measures of the functional equivalence of amino...
