UniProt features at this position:

(none catalogued)

Position 528 sits in a connecting loop between transmembrane helices. Loop residues are typically solvent-exposed and often contribute to interhelical contacts or serve as recognition sites for binding partners. 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.

Final Schema Categorization

Category 3/4 — Most Druggable

<strong>Category 3/4 — Most Druggable</strong><br/><br/>|ΔΔG|=1.04 < 2 kcal/mol (fold intact) + AlphaMissense 0.665 confirms functional impact. Specific local contacts disrupted — priority for docking and pharmacological chaperone screening.

Why this card matters. Wolframin's fold survives this substitution (|ΔΔG|=1.04 kcal/mol). The pathogenic signal is real — AlphaMissense places it at 0.665. Protein still folds, but a specific local site is broken. Pharmacological chaperones and small-molecule binders are the rational therapeutic vector.
