Abstract:
:The human HMGB1 gene mutations have a major impact on several immune-related diseases and cancer. The detrimental effect of non-synonymous mutations of HMGB1 has not been investigated yet, hence the present study aims to examine single nucleotide polymorphisms and their implications on the structure-function of human HMGB1. The multifaceted HMGB1 protein acts as pleiotropic cytokine and regulates essential genes for coordinated cellular functions. The mutational effect on HMGB1 was analyzed by sequence-based homology methods, supervised learning methods, and structure-based methods. The study identified 58 non-synonymous mutations in human HMGB1, out of which only 2 mutations; R10T (rs61742222) and F103C (rs61733675) were classified as the SNPs with highest deleterious and disease-causing mutants. The effect of these mutations in structure of HMGB1 was scrutinized and the R10T mutant found to have a distinct structural behaviour in the B-box domain. In addition, R10T mutant predicted that it affects the MoRF function of HMGB1 and it could disrupt the DNA binding or/and protein partner interaction activity by HMGB1. F103C mutation takes place at the TLR binding and cytokine inducing region of HMGB1, hence it could affect the protein binding activity which involves in many cellular signaling. The study identified potent mutations R10T (a cancer-causing somatic mutation) and F103C (a novel mutation) and these mutations either directly or indirectly hinder DNA binding activity and TLR and cytokine binding of HMGB1. These findings will help in understanding the molecular basis of these promising mutations and functional role of human HMGB1 in cancer and immunological diseases.AbbreviationsAGERAdvanced glycosylation end product-specific receptorCXCLChemokine (C-X-C motif) liganddbSNPThe single nucleotide polymorphism databaseHMGB1High mobility group box 1LINCSLINear Constraint SolverMDSMolecular dynamics simulationMoRFMolecular recognition featuresNPTNumber of particle, Pressure and TemperatureNVTNumber of particle, Volume and TemperaturensSNPNon-synonymous SNPPBCPartial boundary conditionPCAPrincipal component analysisPMEPartial mesh EwaldRMSDRoot mean square deviationRMSFRoot mean square fluctuationSNPSingle nucleotide polymorphismSPCSingle-point chargeTLRToll-like receptorUTRUn-translated RegionCommunicated by Ramaswamy H.
