SIFT: predicting amino acid changes that affect protein function

TLDR
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.Abstract:
Single nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) studies and random mutagenesis projects identify amino acid substitutions in protein-coding regions. Each substitution has the potential to affect protein function. SIFT (Sorting Intolerant From Tolerant) is a program that predicts whether an amino acid substitution affects protein function so that users can prioritize substitutions for further study. We have shown that SIFT can distinguish between functionally neutral and deleterious amino acid changes in mutagenesis studies and on human polymorphisms. SIFT is available at http://blocks.fhcrc.org/sift/SIFT.html.read more

Scale Aggregation Network for Accurate and Efficient Crowd Counting
TL;DR: A novel training loss, combining of Euclidean loss and local pattern consistency loss is proposed, which improves the performance of the model in the authors' experiments and achieves superior performance to state-of-the-art methods while with much less parameters.

TL;DR: This study constructed three independent datasets by removing all duplicities, inconsistencies and mutations previously used in the training of evaluated prediction tools, and returned results for all mutations, confirming that consensus prediction represents an accurate and robust alternative to the predictions delivered by individual tools.

TL;DR: M-CAP is developed, a clinical pathogenicity classifier that outperforms existing methods at all thresholds and correctly dismisses 60% of rare, missense variants of uncertain significance in a typical genome at 95% sensitivity.

A reverse genetic, nontransgenic approach to wheat crop improvement by TILLING
TL;DR: The use of TILLING (targeting induced local lesions in genomes), a reverse genetic, nontransgenic method, to improve a quality trait in a polyploid crop plant shows potential as a tool for crop improvement.

Functional annotations improve the predictive score of human disease-related mutations in proteins
TL;DR: SNPs&GO is an accurate method that, starting from a protein sequence, can predict whether a mutation is disease related or not by exploiting the protein functional annotation, and outperforms other available predictive methods.
