Structural Context

Position 734 in lumenal domain — same C733-C765 disulfide region (R732C, C733G, C765R). Neighbors: TYR735 (2.5 Å — Y735 partner of G736 environment), CYS733 (2.5 Å — the C733 disulfide cysteine!), MET731 (3.8 Å), TRP730 (3.8 Å).

L734H sits immediately downstream of C733 — perturbing the C733-C765 disulfide region from the adjacent position. AM 0.461 below threshold but Wolfram 1 confirms pathogenicity.

Amino-acid chemistry
Leucine (L) → Histidine (H) — branched aliphatic replaced by aromatic titratable basic.
Position in the protein
C-terminal lumenal domain · position 734 (pLDDT 88).

Druggability Assessment

Category 3/4 — Most Druggable (AM under-call). |ΔΔG| 0.47. AlphaMissense 0.461 below threshold but Wolfram 1 confirms pathogenicity.

Mechanism: perturbation of C733-C765 disulfide region from adjacent position. Therapeutic: same C733-C765 microregion.

Why this matters

L734H is in the same C733-C765 disulfide microregion as R732C, C733G, C765R.
