Mutation mapping of apolipoprotein A-I structure assisted with the putative cholesterol recognition regions.

Abstract excerpt

Twenty-nine from 52 missense mutations in apoA-I gene are predicted to be deleterious by both SIFT and PolyPhen-2 algorithms. Among those, eight mutations with a prominent change in structure stability as modeled by the SDM tool for both lipid-free (Mei and Atkinson (2011) PDB ID: 3R2P) and HDL-bound (Wu et al. (2009) PDB ID: 3K2S) apoA-I, are referred as structural. The remaining mutations with a preferential...
