Using google, search for ‘nucleotide blast’ – an NCBI sequence alignment program and open the following page. Name of presentation Month 2009 Copy and paste your primer sequence in the QUERY box and your p53 nucleotide sequence in the SUBJECT box. Click on BLAST. The colourful box shows a visual representation of your results while the exact nucleotide matches are shown below. Name of presentation Month 2009 The query sequence (1-29 nucleotides in length) matched exactly to the subject sequence from its nucleotide sequence starting from 194-222. Now go back to your nucleotide sequence and highlight in yellow, the corresponding region (194-222). NOTE: There will be a mismatch of one nucleotide (which is your mutation). Also, the reverse primers will map in the 3’ to 5’ direction. Name of presentation Month 2009 STEP 3: Find out which amino acid is being mutated and what the mutation is.

In this particular sequence, the codon being mutated is as follows: GAC With ‘G’ being mutated Using your codon table, identify which amino acid ‘GAC’ codes for and write it below. GAC codes for the amino acid Aspartic acid. From your primer sequence, you can notice that ‘G’ has been replaced by ‘C’. This mutation will now change the codon to encode for: CAC which codes for the amino acid Histidine. EXAMPLE PRIMER SEQUENCE tgatgctgtccccgcacgatattgaacaa Name of presentation Month 2009 Results Thus we know that at the 48 amino acid position, the codon ‘gac’ is being mutated to ‘cac’ which means that an aspartic acid is being converted into a histidine amino acid. This can be written in notations as below: D48H Name of presentation Month 2009 EXERCISE A protein’s secondary structures may be visualized in 3D using various softwares like DeepView. These structures are generated using different techniques, for e.g. x-ray crystallography and published in various journals. All these structures are also available in databases like RCSB protein data bank (see below). In this exercise, we shall look into the p53 protein structure and observe the mutations being introduced in this project. Name of presentation Month 2009 I have previously downloaded the p53 homotetramer structure, PDB ID: A2HI. Open this structure using the DeepView software. We can see the various control and visualization panels below: Name of presentation Month 2009 We can un-highlight a single p53 protein using the control panel (right). Name of presentation Month 2009 Now, we can highlight a particular mutation, for e.g. R248G which is a change from Arginine to Glycine at the 248th position, using the control panel. In this structure we can observe Arginine at the 248th position. In the PCR we did yesterday, one set of primers introduced a change in this particular Arginine and changed it into a Glycine. Name of presentation Month 2009 FUTURE EXERCISE You can also study how this would affect various changes like DNA binding effects (if the mutation is in the DBD domain), electrostatic potentials, creation and deletion of different types of bonds, etc using this software. A pdf manual for this software is available for your perusal in your downtime. You may also find other p53 structures with other mutations in the RCSB database.
