Identification of deleterious single nucleotide polymorphism (SNP)s in the human TBX5 gene & prediction of their structural & functional consequences: An in silico approach.

ABSTRACT: T-box transcription factor 5 gene (TBX5) encodes the transcription factor TBX5, which plays a crucial role in the development of heart and upper limbs. Damaging single nucleotide variants in this gene alter the protein structure, disturb the functions of TBX5, and ultimately cause Holt-Oram Syndrome (HOS). By analyzing the available single nucleotide polymorphism information in the dbSNP database, this study was designed to identify the most deleterious TBX5 SNPs through in silico approaches and predict their structural and functional consequences. Fifty-eight missense substitutions were found damaging by sequence homology-based tools: SIFT and PROVEAN, and structure homology-based tool PolyPhen-2. Various disease association meta-predictors further scrutinized these SNPs. Additionally, conservation profile of the amino acid residues, their surface accessibility, stability, and structural integrity of the native protein upon mutations were assessed. From these analyses, finally 5 SNPs were detected as the most damaging ones: [rs1565941579 (P85S), rs1269970792 (W121R), rs772248871 (V153D), rs769113870 (E208D), and rs1318021626 (I222N)]. Analyses of stop-lost, nonsense, UTR, and splice site SNPs were also conducted. Through integrative bioinformatics analyses, this study has identified the SNPs that are deleterious to the TBX5 protein structure and have the potential to cause HOS. Further wet-lab experiments can validate these findings.

In silico analysis of single nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) in human TNF-? gene.

Project description:The TNF-? gene mutations are seen in many diseases especially inflammatory diseases. Hence, before planning a larger population study, it is advisable to sort out the possible functional SNPs. To accomplish this goal, data available in the dbSNP database and different computer programs can be used. Therefore, this study was undertaken to find the functional nsSNPs (non-synonymous single nucleotide polymorphisms) in TNF-?. Out of the total 169 SNPs, 48 were nsSNPs (non-synonymous single nucleotide polymorphisms), 23 occurred in the mRNA 3' UTR, 10 occurred in 5' UTR region, 41 occurred in intronic regions and the rest were other types of SNPs. SIFT and PolyPhen predicted 2 out of 48 nsSNPs as damaging. Among the predicted nsSNPs, rs4645843 and rs1800620 were identified as deleterious and damaging by the SIFT (Sorting Intolerant from Tolerant) and PolyPhen programs. Additionally, I-Mutant and nsSNPAnalyzer showed a decrease in stability for these nsSNPs upon mutation. Protein structural analysis with these amino acid variants was performed by using I-Mutant, Swiss PDB viewer, ANOLEA (Atomic Non-Local Environment Assessment), MUSTER (MUlti-Sources ThreadER) and NOMAD-Ref servers to check their molecular dynamics and energy minimization calculations. This study suggested that P84L and A94T variants of TNF-? could directly or indirectly destabilize the amino acid interactions and hydrogen bond networks thus explaining the functional deviations of protein to some extent.

Machine learning approach to single nucleotide polymorphism-based asthma prediction.

Project description:Machine learning (ML) is poised as a transformational approach uniquely positioned to discover the hidden biological interactions for better prediction and diagnosis of complex diseases. In this work, we integrated ML-based models for feature selection and classification to quantify the risk of individual susceptibility to asthma using single nucleotide polymorphism (SNP). Random forest (RF) and recursive feature elimination (RFE) algorithm were implemented to identify the SNPs with high implication to asthma. K-nearest neighbor (kNN) and support vector machine (SVM) algorithms were trained to classify the identified SNPs whether associated with non-asthmatic or asthmatic samples. Feature selection step showed that RF outperformed RFE and the feature importance score derived from RF was consistently high for a subset of SNPs, indicating the robustness of RF in selecting relevant features associated with asthma. Model comparison showed that the integration of RF-SVM obtained the highest model performance with an accuracy, precision, and sensitivity of 62.5%, 65.3%, and 69%, respectively, when compared to the baseline, RF-kNN, and an external MeanDiff-kNN models. Furthermore, results show that the occurrence of asthma can be predicted with an Area under the Curve (AUC) of 0.62 and 0.64 for RF-SVM and RF-kNN models, respectively. This study demonstrates the integration of ML models to augment traditional methods in predicting genetic predisposition to multifactorial diseases such as asthma.

Prediction of a highly deleterious mutation E17K in AKT-1 gene: An in silico approach.

Project description:The AKT1 (v-akt murine thymoma viral oncogene homologue 1) kinase is a member of most frequently activated proliferation and survival signaling pathway in cancer. Recently, hyperactivation of AKT1, due to functional point mutation in the pleckstrin homology (PH) domain of AKT1 gene, has been found to be associated with human colorectal, breast and ovarian cancer. Thus, considering its crucial role in cellular signaling pathway, a functional analysis of missense mutations of AKT1 gene was undertaken in this study. Twenty nine nsSNPs (non-synonymous single nucleotide polymorphism) within coding region of AKT1 gene were selected for our investigation and six SNPs were found to be deleterious by combinatorial predictions of various computational tools. RMSD values were calculated for the mutant models which predicted four substitutions (E17K, E319G, D32E and A255T) to be highly deleterious. The insight of the structural attribute was gained through analysis of, secondary structures, solvent accessibility and intermolecular hydrogen bond analysis which confirmed one missense mutation (E17K) to be highly deleterious nsSNPs. In conclusion, the investigated gene AKT1 has twenty nine SNPs in the coding region and through progressive analysis using different bioinformatics tools one highly deleterious SNP with rs121434592 was profiled. Thus, results of this study can pave a new platform to sort nsSNPs for several important regulatory genes that can be undertaken for the confirmation of their phenotype and their correlation with diseased status in case control studies.

Transcription-translation error: In-silico investigation of the structural and functional impact of deleterious single nucleotide polymorphisms in GULP1 gene.

Project description:Nonsynonymous single nucleotide polymorphisms (nsSNPs) are one of the most common forms of mutations known to disrupt the product of translation thereby altering the protein structure-function relationship. GULP1 (PTB domain-containing engulfment adaptor protein 1) is an evolutionarily conserved adaptor protein that has been associated with glycated hemoglobin (HbA1c) in Genome-Wide Association Studies (GWAS). In order to understand the role of GULP1 in the etiology of diabetes, it is important to study some functional nsSNPs present within the GULP1 protein. We, therefore, used a SNPinformatics approach to retrieve, classify, and determine the stability effect of some nsSNPs. Y27C, G142D, A144T, and Y149C were jointly predicted by the pathogenic-classifying tools to be disease-causing, however, only G142D, A144T, and Y149C had their structural architecture perturbed as predicted by I-MUTANT and MuPro. Interestingly, G142D and Y149C occur at positions 142 and 149 of GULP1 which coincidentally are found within the binding site of GULP1. Protein-Protein interaction analysis also revealed that GULP1 interacted with 10 proteins such as Cell division cycle 5-like protein (CDC5L), ADP-ribosylation factor 6 (ARF6), Arf-GAP with coiled-coil (ACAP1), and Multiple epidermal growth factor-like domains protein 10 (MEGF10), etc. Taken together, rs1357922096, rs1264999716, and rs128246649 could be used as genetic biomarkers for the diagnosis of diabetes. However, being a computational study, these nsSNPs require experimental validation to explore their metabolic involvement in the pathogenesis of diseases.

Hypothesis driven single nucleotide polymorphism search (HyDn-SNP-S).

Project description:The advent of complete-genome genotyping across phenotype cohorts has provided a rich source of information for bioinformaticians. However the search for SNPs from this data is generally performed on a study-by-study case without any specific hypothesis of the location for SNPs that are predictive for the phenotype. We have designed a method whereby very large SNP lists (several gigabytes in size), combining several genotyping studies at once, can be sorted and traced back to their ultimate consequence in protein structure. Given a working hypothesis, researchers are able to easily search whole genome genotyping data for SNPs that link genetic locations to phenotypes. This allows a targeted search for correlations between phenotypes and potentially relevant systems, rather than utilizing statistical methods only. HyDn-SNP-S returns results that are less data dense, allowing more thorough analysis, including haplotype analysis. We have applied our method to correlate DNA polymerases to cancer phenotypes using four of the available cancer databases in dbGaP. Logistic regression and derived haplotype analysis indicates that ~80SNPs, previously overlooked, are statistically significant. Derived haplotypes from this work link POLL to breast cancer and POLG to prostate cancer with an increase in incidence of 3.01- and 9.6-fold, respectively. Molecular dynamics simulations on wild-type and one of the SNP mutants from the haplotype of POLL provide insights at the atomic level on the functional impact of this cancer related SNP. Furthermore, HyDn-SNP-S has been designed to allow application to any system. The program is available upon request from the authors.

Prediction and Structural Comparison of Deleterious Coding Nonsynonymous Single Nucleotide Polymorphisms (nsSNPs) in Human LEP Gene Associated with Obesity.

Project description:Leptin is a peptide hormone that regulates fat stores in the body and appetite by controlling the feeling of satiety. This hormone is secreted by the white adipose tissue and plays a role in the storage and mobilization of fatty acids. Mutations of the LEP gene have been associated with obesity in different populations; it is a multifactorial disease that constitutes a major public health problem. In this study, we evaluated the impact of missense SNPs in the LEP gene extracted from dbSNP using 8 computational prediction tools. Out of the total of 4337 SNPs, 93 were nsSNPs (nonsynonymous single nucleotide polymorphisms). Among 93 nsSNPs, 12 (S46L, G59S, D61N, D100N, N103K, C117S, D76V, S88C, P90R, I95N, L161R, and R105W) variants were predicted to be the most deleterious by prediction software. On these 12 deleterious SNPs, 8 variants (S46L, G59S, D61N, D100N, N103K, C117S, L161R, and R105W) were located in the conserved positions and showed a decrease in structure stability which was evaluated by I-Mutant and Mupro. Then, by analyzing the different interactions between different amino acids in wild and mutated proteins, we assessed the structural impact of the deleterious modifications using the YASARA software. Among 8 deleterious nsSNPs, we revealed structure changes in the 6 variants S46L, G59S, D100N, L103K, R105W, L161R, two of which R105W, N103K were previously reported as associated with obesity. Our study suggests 6 deleterious mutations could play an important role in contributing to human obesity and worth to be included in association and functional studies, then may be a drug target.

In silico analysis for determining the deleterious nonsynonymous single nucleotide polymorphisms of BRCA genes.

Project description:Recent advances in DNA sequencing techniques have led to an increase in the identification of single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) in BRCA1 and BRCA2 genes, but no further information regarding the deleterious probability of many of them is available (Variants of Unknown Significance/VUS). As a result, in the current study, different sequence- and structure-based computational tools including SIFT, PolyPhen2, PANTHER, SNPs&GO, FATHMM, SNAP, PhD-SNP, Align-GVGD, and I-Mutant were utilized for determining how resulted BRCA protein is affected by corresponding missense mutations. FoldX was used to estimate mutational effects on the structural stability of BRCA proteins. Variants were considered extremely deleterious only when all tools predicted them to be deleterious. A total of 10 VUSs in BRCA1 (Cys39Ser, Cys64Gly, Phe861Cys, Arg1699Pro, Trp1718Cys, Phe1761Ser, Gly1788Asp, Val1804Gly, Trp1837Gly, and Trp1837Cys) and 12 in BRCA2 (Leu2510Pro, Asp2611Gly, Tyr2660Asp, Leu2686Pro, Leu2688Pro, Tyr2726Cys, Leu2792Pro, Gly2812Glu, Gly2813Glu, Arg2842Cys, Asp3073Gly, and Gly3076Val) were considered as extremely deleterious. Results suggested that deleterious variants were mostly enriched in the N- and C-terminal domain of the BRCA1 and BRCA2 C-terminus. Utilizing evolutionary conservation analysis, we demonstrated that the majority of deleterious SNPs ensue in highly conserved regions of BRCA genes. Furthermore, utilizing FoldX, we demonstrated that alterations in the function of proteins are not always together with stability alterations.

An In Silico Evaluation of Deleterious Nonsynonymous Single Nucleotide Polymorphisms in the ErbB3 Oncogene.

Project description:ErbB3 is a significant oncogenic target that is involved in the development of numerous malignancies. In the present in silico study, we evaluated the structural and functional impact of single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) on the ErbB3 gene. The nonsynonymous SNPs (nsSNPs) are known to be deleterious or disease-causing variations because they alter protein sequence, structure, and function. Out of a total 531 SNPs in ErbB3, we investigated 77 coding nsSNPs and observed that 20 of them could be expected to alter the protein's function based on the predictions of both sequence homology-based (SIFT) and structural homology-based (Polyphen) algorithms. Thereafter, we computed the stability of mutants in units of free energy using I-Mutant 3.0, MuStab, and iPTree-STAB programs and identified seven crucial point mutations (V89M, V105G, C290Y, I418N, R669C, I744T, and A1131T) in epidermal growth factor receptor 3 that are manifested as nsSNPs. Furthermore, FASTSNP determined 14 synonymous SNPs that may have a profound impact on splicing regulation. The computational study identified seven novel hotspots predicted to maintain the native structural conformation and functional activity of ErbB3 and may account for cancer if mutated.

Copy number variant (CNV) and Single nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) of UCLA hESC lines

Project description:Female human ESC-lines can carry active X-chromosomes (Xa) or an XIST-RNA- coated inactive X-chromosome (Xi XIST+ ). Additionally, many ESC-lines have abnormal X-chromosome-inactivation (XCI)-states where the Xi no longer expresses XIST-RNA and has transcriptionally active regions (eroded Xi=Xe). The fate of each XCI-state upon differentiation is unclear because individual lines often contain a mixture of XCI-states. Here, we established homogeneous XiXa, XeXa, and XaXa ESC-lines. We found that these lines were unable to initiate XIST-expression and X-chromosome- wide silencing upon differentiation indicating that the ESC XCI-state is maintained in differentiated cells. Consequently, differentiated XeXa and XaXa cells displayed higher levels of X-linked gene-expression than XiXa cells. Although global transcriptional compensation between X-chromosomes and autosomes is not required for female ESC-differentiation, the degree of X-chromosome- silencing influences differentiation efficiencies. Our data suggest that the Xi XIST+ Xa state is inherent to human ESCs and that all other XCI-states, including XaXa, are abnormal and arise during ESC-derivation or maintenance.
