Abstract excerpt
BACKGROUND: Predict whether a mutation is deleterious based on the custom 3D model of a protein. RESULTS: We have developed MODICT, a mutation prediction tool which is based on per residue RMSD (root mean square deviation) values of superimposed 3D protein models. Our mathematical algorithm was tested for 42 described mutations in multiple genes including renin (REN), beta-tubulin (TUBB2B), biotinidase (BTD),...
