Homology modeling in short… Prediction of structure based upon a highly similar structure • 2 basic assumptions: • Structure defines function • During evolution structures are more conserved than sequence Use one structure to predict another
Homology modeling % identity * O # residues * Actually, modelling is possible, but we cannot get an alignment… Example: by 80 residues 30% identity sufficient

Mutations: • Arginine 81 -> Glutamic acid • Glutamic acid 110 -> Lysine Saltbridge between Arginine and Glutamic acid is lost in both cases
Mutation: • Tryptophan 105 -> Arginine Hydrophobic contacts from the Tryoptohan are lost, introduction of an hydrophilic and charged residue
The three mutated residues are all important for the correct positioning of Tyrosine 111 Tyrosine 111 is important for substrate binding Accepted in Nature Genetics
To conclude…. Homology Modeling… • What? Prediction of an unknown structure based on an homologous and known structure • Why? To answer biological and medical questions when the “real” structure is unknown • When? A template with enough identity must be available • How? 8 Steps • Real world examples: mutations in DFNB63 gene can lead to hearing disorders.
