(none catalogued)
Position 351 sits in a transmembrane helix (Transmembrane helix 2). Wolframin has eleven such helices anchoring it in the ER membrane; substitutions inside the bilayer-embedded segments can disrupt helix packing, lipid contacts, and the overall ER topology of the protein. The wild-type residue is aromatic with hydroxyl (tyrosine — H-bond donor/acceptor); the mutant is small polar (serine — hydroxyl). The chemistry shift implies altered local packing, hydrogen-bonding, and/or electrostatics at this site.
