AMINO ACID SUBSTITUTION

Specialty Definition: AMINO ACID SUBSTITUTION

DomainDefinition

Health

The naturally occurring or experimentally induced replacement of one or more amino acids in a protein with another. If a functionally equivalent amino acid is substituted, the protein may retain wild-type activity. Substitution may also diminish or eliminate protein function. Experimentally induced substitution is often used to study enzyme activities and binding site properties. (references)
