  • Map genetic variants to protein domain/structure

    I got some genetic mutations or variants from exome sequencing data analysis. I am trying to map genetic mutations/variants to protein domain/structure. Ideally, I want to visualize the variants in linear protein domain diagram and 3D protein structure like this figure. I did research, but I can’t find good tools/databases for such work.

    I know similar questions have been asked here like https://www.biostars.org/p/61049/. But it is only the protein domain diagram (with no 3D structure), plus the protein domain annotation there seems to be limited.
    This question was asked at biostar: https://www.biostars.org/p/125929/. But I want to check if anybody here may have a answer/hint. Thanks!

    PyMOL should be able to show these changes for 3D structures (provided a structure is available in PDB): http://pymol.org/ If your institution does not have a license then you may be able to use "education" version (if you qualify): http://pymol.org/educational/

      Thank you, Pymol looks like a good tool. Will try it out for the 3d structure.
      Anyone knows database and visualization tools for mapping genetic variants to protein domains?

        Essential Discoveries and Tools in Epitranscriptomics
        by seqadmin




        The field of epigenetics has traditionally concentrated more on DNA and how changes like methylation and phosphorylation of histones impact gene expression and regulation. However, our increased understanding of RNA modifications and their importance in cellular processes has led to a rise in epitranscriptomics research. “Epitranscriptomics brings together the concepts of epigenetics and gene expression,” explained Adrien Leger, PhD, Principal Research Scientist...

        Current Approaches to Protein Sequencing
        by seqadmin


        Proteins are often described as the workhorses of the cell, and identifying their sequences is key to understanding their role in biological processes and disease. Currently, the most common technique used to determine protein sequences is mass spectrometry. While still a valuable tool, mass spectrometry faces several limitations and requires a highly experienced scientist familiar with the equipment to operate it. Additionally, other proteomic methods, like affinity assays, are constrained...
