The Use of Orthologous Sequences to Predict the Impact of Amino Acid Substitutions on Protein Function

Computational predictions of the functional impact of genetic variation play a critical role in human genetics research. For nonsynonymous coding variants, most prediction algorithms make use of patterns of amino acid substitutions observed among homologous proteins at a given site. In particular, s...
