TABLE 1.
Bioinformatic analysis of ACACA mutations.
Nucleotide change | c.4858G > A | c.6481C > T |
Amino acid change | p. A1620T | p. R2161W |
SIFT1 | Tolerated (score = 0.515) | Tolerated (score = 0.105) |
PROVEAN2 | Neutral (score = −0.65) | Deleterious (score = −5.778) |
MutationTaster | Disease-causing | Disease-causing |
PolyPhen-23 | Benign (score = 0.014) | Probably damaging (score = 0.999) |
dbSNP (MAF/minor allele count)4 | −(<0.005) | −(<0.005) |
ClinVar5 | – | – |
ExAC allele frequency6 | 0.0001 | 0.0009 |
1The SIFT score ranges from 0.0 (deleterious) to 1.0 (tolerated); variants with scores closer to 0.0 are more confidently predicted to be deleterious, and very close to 1.0 are more confidently predicted to be tolerated.
2The cutoff for PROVEAN scores was set to -2.5. That is, consider a score higher than –2.5 to be neutral (tolerated) and that lower than or equal to –2.5 to be deleterious (damaging).
3The PolyPhen-2 score ranges from 0.0 (tolerated) to 1.0 (deleterious). Between 0.0 and 0.15 – variants with scores in this range are predicted to be benign; 0.15 and 1.0 – variants with scores in this range are possibly damaging; 0.85 and 1.0 – variants with scores in this range are more confidently predicted to be damaging.
4The “–” means both variants were absent from dbSNP.
5The “–” means no data have been submitted to the ClinVar database.
6The ExAC allele frequency represents the heterozygous mutation frequency.
