Structural Context

Position 469 in TM5 — first TM5 variant at v3 depth. Neighbors: LEU468 (2.5 Å), LEU470 (2.5 Å), GLY466 (3.8 Å). Hydrophobic TM environment.

S469L removes hydroxyl from TM5 (favorable energetically), but the wild-type serine's H-bond capacity supported functional geometry. AM 0.18 under-call; Conflicting evidence.

Amino-acid chemistry
Serine (S) → Leucine (L) — polar hydroxyl replaced by branched aliphatic.
Position in the protein
TM5 (residues 465–485) · position 469 (pLDDT 71).

Druggability Assessment

Category 4 — Stable Fold, Function Disrupted (AM under-call). |ΔΔG| 0.14. AlphaMissense 0.18 below threshold. Limited clinical evidence.

Mechanism: lost serine H-bonding in TM5. Therapeutic: TM5 site-directed.

Why this matters

S469L is the first TM5 variant in the Atlas at full v3 depth — establishes TM5 as a target.
