Single-Nucleotide Polymorphism of PPARγ, a Protein at the Crossroads of Physiological and Pathological Processes

Abstract: Genome polymorphisms are responsible for phenotypic differences between humans and for individual susceptibility to genetic diseases and therapeutic responses. Non-synonymous single-nucleotide polymorphisms (nsSNPs) lead to protein variants with a change in the amino acid sequence that may affect the structure and/or function of the protein and may be utilized as efficient structural and functional markers of association to complex diseases. This study is focused on nsSNP variants of the ligand binding domain … Show more

“…The AMBER03 force field (Duan et al, ) was used to simulate wild‐type FXN and all its variants. The equilibration strategy adopted for the eight systems is quite standard and is explained in detail in (Di Carlo et al, ; Petrosino et al, ). The temperature, for the production simulations, was held fixed at 300 and 355 K using the v‐rescale thermostat (Bussi, Donadio, & Parrinello, ) with a coupling time of 0.1 ps.…”

“…The effects exerted by somatic mutations on the proteins range from changes in the protein stability, to alterations in the protein functions and in protein-protein interactions (Lori et al, 2013;Lori et al, 2016;Pasquo et al, 2012;Petrosino et al, 2017;Stefl, Nishi, Petukh, Panchenko, & Alexov, 2013). Computational studies based on protein structural information may provide a rationale for the changes induced by mutation (Casadio, Vassura, Tiwari, Fariselli, & Martelli, 2011;Peng, Alexov, & Basu, 2019;Petukh, Kucukkal, & Alexov, 2015); however, direct physicochemical studies of the protein variants may reveal all the local minor structural changes responsible of modifications in protein functions without dramatic alterations of the global protein folding (Lori et al, 2016).…”

“…PGK1 wild type and variants (110–160 μg/mL) were heated from 20°C to 80°C in 20 mM Tris-HCl, pH 8.0, 200 mM NaCl, 0.2 mM DTT, in a 0.1 cm quartz cuvette with a heating rate of 1 degree x min -1 controlled by a Jasco programmable Peltier element as described in [ 27 , 29 ]. The dichroic activity at 222 nm and the photomultiplier were continuously monitored in parallel every 0.5°C [ 35 ].…”

“…The effect of nsSNVs on protein stability, protein-protein interactions and protein functions has been investigated for several other protein families [ 26 29 ]. Indeed, large-scale computational studies utilizing structural information indicate that a single amino acid substitution will affect either protein-protein interactions and protein stability [ 30 , 31 ].…”
