Identification and in silico analysis of functional SNPs of the BRCA1 gene.

TLDR
It is proposed that an nsSNP (rs1800751) could be an important candidate for the breast cancer caused by the BRCA1 gene from a comparison of the stabilizing residues of the native and mutant proteins.

Mutation in MCL1 predicted loop to helix structural transition stabilizes MCL1–Bax binding interaction favoring cancer cell survival

TL;DR: The overall findings from the study reveal that the presence of V220F mutation on MCL1 is responsible for the structural confirmational change leading to disruption of its biological functions which might be responsible for tumorigenesis.

Genome-wide in silico analysis leads to identification of deleterious L290V mutation in RBBP5 gene in Bos indicus.

TL;DR: In this paper , the genome-wide deleterious mutations were identified in zebu cattle (Bos indicus) using in silico approach, where a total of 279,383 SNPs were identified at Read Depth10, which were further filtered to 692 missense SNPs.

dbSNP: the NCBI database of genetic variation

TL;DR: The dbSNP database is a general catalog of genome variation to address the large-scale sampling designs required by association studies, gene mapping and evolutionary biology, and is integrated with other sources of information at NCBI such as GenBank, PubMed, LocusLink and the Human Genome Project data.

SIFT: predicting amino acid changes that affect protein function

TL;DR: SIFT is a program that predicts whether an amino acid substitution affects protein function so that users can prioritize substitutions for further study and can distinguish between functionally neutral and deleterious amino acid changes in mutagenesis studies and on human polymorphisms.

Predicting Deleterious Amino Acid Substitutions

TL;DR: A tool that uses sequence homology to predict whether a substitution affects protein function is constructed, which may be used to identify plausible disease candidates among the SNPs that cause missense substitutions.
