Abstract excerpt
This research explores the structural and functional consequences of high-impact missense variants in three immune-related genes MMP8 (D253N, Y261S), GZMK (A42P, L122P), and OASL (W216C) with possible relevance to host response in epidemic viral infections. A layered computational workflow was implemented to predict pathogenicity, evaluate structural stability, and assess residue conservation. Subsequent modeling...
