Abstract excerpt
The inheritance modes of pathogenic missense mutations are known to be highly associated with protein structures; recessive mutations are mainly observed in the buried region of protein structures, whereas dominant mutations are significantly enriched in the interfaces of molecular interactions. However, the differences in phenotypic impacts among various dominant mutations observed in individuals are not fully...
