Predicted ΔΔG (in kilocalories per mole) for known ALS disease mutations on structures of the SOD1 trimer, dimer, and monomer. Dimer and monomer structures are from Protein Data Bank ID code 1SPD; trimer structure, as in the main text, is model 1 described in Dataset S1. We note that our identified mutations for stabilizing or destabilizing the SOD1 trimer are not known disease mutants, likely because we specially selected them to affect only the trimeric form of SOD1 and not the native monomer or dimer species, artificially limiting our choices. Our purpose in choosing such mutations was for clean, unambiguous results verifying the identity of residues in the trimer interfaces, whereas the disease is most likely caused by mutations that affect the stability of all forms of SOD1, including the native forms for which we deselect here. AA, amino acid; ΔΔGD, change in free energy upon mutation for the structure of SOD1 native dimer; ΔΔGM, change in free energy upon mutation for the structure of SOD1 native monomer; ΔΔGT, change in free energy upon mutation for the structure of SOD1 trimer.
