Structural Context

Position 527 in connecting loop near TM7 start (TM7 = 529-549). Neighbors: TYR528 (2.5 Å), GLY526 (2.5 Å), LEU531 (3.9 Å — same L531 in L543P TM7 region).

T527I T→I substitution at the loop-TM7 boundary. AM 0.12 under-call; multi-phenotype confirms.

Amino-acid chemistry
Threonine (T) → Isoleucine (I) — polar hydroxyl replaced by branched aliphatic. Loss of H-bonding.
Position in the protein
Connecting loop · position 527 (pLDDT 78).

Druggability Assessment

Category 3/4 — Most Druggable (AM under-call). |ΔΔG| 0.53. AlphaMissense 0.12 below threshold but multi-phenotype confirms.

Mechanism: T→I lost H-bonding at TM7 boundary. Therapeutic: loop-TM7 boundary microregion.

Why this matters

T527I continues T→I class (with T337I, T361I, T361S, T461I).
