missense mutations
14 October 2003Disease-causing missense (and other in-frame) mutations can exert their deleterious effects at the cellular level through multiple mechanisms.
The deleterious effects of missense mutations are commonly attributed to their impact on primary amino acid sequence and protein structure.
Exonic splicing enhancers
Some missense mutations are deleterious because they disturb cis-acting splicing elements-so-called "exonic splicing enhancers" (ESEs).

gain-of-glycosylation mutations
17 July 2007Disease-causing missense (and other in-frame) mutations can exert their deleterious effects at the cellular level through multiple mechanisms.
A pathogenic mechanism involves the addition of a novel N-linked glycan. Up to 1.4% of known disease-causing missense mutations are predicted to give rise to gains-of-glycosylation.
For some of these mutations, the novel glycans have been shown to be both necessary and sufficient to account for the deleterious impact of the mutation.
