---|---|---|
PolyPhen-2 | Predicts possible impact of an amino acid substitution on the structure and function of a human protein using straightforward physical and comparative considerations. | |
Provean | Predicts whether an amino acid substitution or “indel” has an impact on the biological function of a protein. | |
Sift | Predicts whether an amino acid substitution affects protein function based on sequence homology and the physical properties of amino acids. | |
Mutation taster | Predicts the functional consequences of amino acid substitutions, intronic and synonymous alterations, short “indel” mutations and variant spanning intron-exon borders. | |
Mutation assessor | Predicts the functional impact of amino-acid substitutions in proteins, such as mutations discovered in cancer or missense polymorphisms. The functional impact is assessed based on evolutionary conservation of the affected amino acid in protein homologs. | |
FATHMM | High-throughput web-server capable of predicting the functional consequences of both coding variants, i.e., non-synonymous single nucleotide variants (nsSNVs), and non-coding variants through Hidden Markov Models. | |
Align-GVGD | Freely available, web-based program that combines the biophysical characteristics of amino acids and protein multiple sequence alignments to predict where missense substitutions in genes of interest fall in a spectrum from enriched deleterious to enriched neutral. | |
Human splicing finder | Predicts the effects of mutations on splicing signals and identifies splicing motifs in any human sequence. It contains all available matrices for auxiliary sequence prediction to identify exonic and intronic motifs. |
