Structural Context

Position analysis: TRP588 (2.4 Å), ALA586 (2.5 Å — same loop as R587W), THR590 (3.5 Å). Same position as R587W. The Atlas's neighbor extraction surfaces this variant's contacts and connects them to the broader multi-variant target landscape.

Druggability Assessment

Cat 3/4 — see structural prose. AlphaMissense below threshold (AM under-call class) but mechanism is structurally identified. Therapeutic strategy: site-directed at contacts identified above, or wet-lab validation if pLDDT borderline/below 50.

Why this matters

R587W + R587Q sister variants.
