An extensive in silico analysis of missense mutations of the human gene.

HLD17 (Hypomyelinating Leukodystrophy 17) is an inherited white matter disorder characterized by insufficient myelin production due to biallelic loss of function mutations in the aminoacyl-tRNA synthetase complex-interacting multifunctional protein 2 (AIMP2) gene. In silico analysis of SNVs (single nucleotide variants) in the AIMP2 gene is an efficient and cost-effective method for analyzing and predicting the impact of mutations on protein function and disease pathophysiology. The study used dbSNP and Ensembl databases to obtain data on 343 nonsynonymous single nucleotide variants (nsSNVs) in the human AIMP2 gene.
