Novel Disease-Associated Missense Single-Nucleotide Polymorphisms Variants Predication by Algorithms Tools and Molecular Dynamics Simulation of Human TCIRG1 Gene Causing Congenital Neutropenia and Osteopetrosis.

ABSTRACT: T Cell Immune Regulator 1, ATPase H + Transporting V0 Subunit A3 (TCIRG1 gene provides instructions for making one part, the a3 subunit, of a large protein complex known as a vacuolar H + -ATPase (V-ATPase). V-ATPases are a group of similar complexes that act as pumps to move positively charged hydrogen atoms (protons) across membranes. Single amino acid changes in highly conserved areas of the TCIRG1 protein have been linked to autosomal recessive osteopetrosis and severe congenital neutropenia. We used multiple computational approaches to classify disease-prone single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) in TCIRG1. We used molecular dynamics analysis to identify the deleterious nsSNPs, build mutant protein structures, and assess the impact of mutation. Our results show that fifteen nsSNPs (rs
