Protein sector analysis for the clustering of disease-associated mutations.

Abstract excerpt

BACKGROUND: The importance of mutations in disease phenotype has been studied, with information available in databases such as OMIM. However, it remains a research challenge for the possibility of clustering amino acid residues based on an underlying interaction, such as co-evolution, to understand how mutations in these related sites can lead to different disease phenotypes. RESULTS: This paper presents an...
