Deep neural network-based programs can be applied to protein structure modeling by inputting amino acid sequences. Here, we aimed to evaluate the AlphaFold2-modeled myocilin wild-type and variant protein structures and compare to the experimentally determined protein structures. Molecular dynamic and ligand binding properties of the experimentally determined and AlphaFold2-modeled protein structures were also analyzed. AlphaFold2-modeled myocilin variant protein structures showed high similarities in overall structure to the experimentally determined mutant protein structures, but the orientations and geometries of amino acid side chains were slightly different. The olfactomedin-like domain of the modeled missense variant protein structures showed fewer folding changes than the nonsense variant when compared to the predicted wild-type protein structure. Differences were also observed in molecular dynamics and ligand binding sites between the AlphaFold2-modeled and experimentally determined structures as well as between the wild-type and variant structures. In summary, the folding of the AlphaFold2-modeled MYOC variant protein structures could be similar to that determined by the experiments but with differences in amino acid side chain orientations and geometries. Careful comparisons with experimentally determined structures are needed before the applications of the in silico modeled variant protein structures. |
