Systematic Assessment of Protein C-Termini Mutated in Human Disorders.

All proteins have a carboxyl terminus, and we previously summarized eight mutations in binding and trafficking sequence determinants in the C-terminus that, when disrupted, cause human diseases. These sequence elements for binding and trafficking sites, as well as post-translational modifications (PTMs), are called minimotifs or short linear motifs. We wanted to determine how frequently mutations in minimotifs in the C-terminus cause disease.

Data supporting a saturation mutagenesis assay for Tat-driven transcription with the GigaAssay.

The data in this article are associated with the research paper "GigaAssay - an adaptable high-throughput saturation mutagenesis assay" [1]. The raw data are sequence reads of HIV-1 cDNA amplified from cellular genomic DNA in a new single-pot saturation mutagenesis assay designated the "GigaAssay". A bioinformatic pipeline and parameters used to analyze the data.

GigaAssay - An adaptable high-throughput saturation mutagenesis assay platform.

High-throughput assay systems have had a large impact on understanding the mechanisms of basic cell functions. However, high-throughput assays that directly assess molecular functions are limited. Herein, we describe the "GigaAssay", a modular high-throughput one-pot assay system for measuring molecular functions of thousands of genetic variants at once.
