Abstract

Predicting the effect of protein mutation is crucial in many applications such as protein design, protein evolution, and genetic disease analysis. Structurally, the mutation is basically the replacement of the side chain of a particular residue. Therefore, accurate side-chain modeling is useful in studying the effect of mutation. Here, we propose a computational method, namely OPUS-Mut, which significantly outperforms other backbone-dependent side-chain modeling methods including our previous method OPUS-Rota4. We evaluate OPUS-Mut by four case studies on Myoglobin, p53, HIV-1 protease, and T4 lysozyme. The results show that the predicted structures of side chains of different mutants are consistent well with their experimentally determined results. In addition, when the residues with significant structural shifts upon the mutation are considered, it is found that the extent of the predicted structural shift of these affected residues can be correlated reasonably well with the functional changes of the mutant measured by experiments. OPUS-Mut can also help one to identify the harmful and benign mutations, and thus may guide the construction of a protein with relatively low sequence homology but with similar structure.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
