To explore possible relationships between genetic mutation and phenotypic variation, we employed different bioinformatics algorithms like Sorting Intolerant from Tolerant (SIFT), Polymorphism Phenotyping (PolyPhen), and PupaSuite to predict the impact of these amino acid substitutions on protein activity of mismatch repair (MMR) genes causing hereditary nonpolyposis colorectal cancer (HNPCC). The gene discussed is MRC1; the disease is hereditary nonpolyposis colon cancer.
