Abstract
In this study, we use our probabilistic approach to analyze the amino acid pairs in human copper-transporting ATPase 2 (ATP7B) in order to determine which amino acid pairs are more sensitive to 125 variants from missense mutant human ATP7B. The results show 97.6% of 125 variants occur at randomly unpredictable amino acid pairs, which account for 80.9% of amino acid pairs in ATP7B, and the chance of occurring of variant is about 9 times higher in randomly unpredictable amino acid pairs than in predictable pairs. Thus, the randomly unpredictable amino acid pairs are more sensitive to variants in human ATP7B.Entities:
