Structural Context

Position 339 in connecting loop. Neighbors: ILE338 (2.5 Å), PHE340 (2.5 Å — TM2 start), ALA342 (3.8 Å — A342T position).

D339N at boundary with TM2. The T337I-I338-D339-F340 region — adjacent to T337I Atlas card. AM 0.14 under-call; Wolfram confirms.

Amino-acid chemistry
Aspartate (D) → Asparagine (N) — charge loss; H-bonding preserved.
Position in the protein
Connecting loop · position 339 (pLDDT 67).

Druggability Assessment

Category 4 — Stable Fold, Function Disrupted (AM under-call). ΔΔG ≈ 0. AlphaMissense 0.14 below threshold but Wolfram 1 confirms.

Mechanism: charge loss in 337-339 loop microregion. Therapeutic: same loop as T337I.

Why this matters

D339N + T337I in same loop region — A342T just downstream — multi-variant cluster.
