Screening of mutations affecting protein stability and dynamics of FGFR1-A simulation analysis.

Single amino acid substitutions in Fibroblast Growth Factor Receptor 1 () destabilize protein and have been implicated in several genetic disorders like various forms of cancer, Kallamann syndrome, Pfeiffer syndrome, Jackson Weiss syndrome, etc. In order to gain functional insight into mutation caused by amino acid substitution to protein function and expression, special emphasis was laid on molecular dynamics simulation techniques in combination with in silico tools such as SIFT, PolyPhen 2.0, I-Mutant 3.
