In Silico Analysis of SNPs in PARK2 and PINK1 Genes That Potentially Cause Autosomal Recessive Parkinson Disease

Abstract: Introduction. Parkinson's disease (PD) is a common neurodegenerative disorder. Mutations in PINK1 are the second most common agents causing autosomal recessive, early onset PD. We aimed to identify the pathogenic SNPs in PARK2 and PINK1 using in silico prediction software and their effect on the structure, function, and regulation of the proteins. Materials and Methods. We carried out in silico prediction of structural effect of each SNP using different bioinformatics tools to predict substitution influence on… Show more

“…[5] In vitro functional and characterization studies, is a highly demanding task in terms of workload, time and financial cost. For these reasons, computational analysis is an appropriate alternative that is more rapid and low-cost approach, which is why it has been used to study many types of inheritance diseases in the past years [42][43][44] to enrich our knowledge of the ways mutations could affect protein structure and function. The main objective of this work was to classify the most damaging SNPs that could be used as diagnostic markers.…”
