A graph-theoretic model of single point mutations in the cystic fibrosis transmembrane conductance regulator
2016-06-17
Abstract excerpt
Cystic fibrosis is one of the most prevalent inherited diseases. This disease is caused by a mutation in a membrane protein, the cystic fibrosis transmembrane conductance regulator (CFTR). CFTR is known to function as a chloride channel that regulates the viscosity of mucus that lines the ducts of a number of organs. The most prevalent mutation of CFTR is located in one of two nucleotide binding domains, namely, t...
