Purpose

Anorexia nervosa (AN) is a neuropsychological public health concern with a socially disabling routine and affects a person's healthy relationship with food. The role of the NNAT (Neuronatin) gene in AN is well established. The impact of mutation at the protein's post-translational modification (PTM) site has been exclusively associated with the worsening of the protein's biochemical dynamics.

Methods

To understand the relationship between genotype and phenotype, it is essential to investigate the appropriate molecular stability of protein required for proper biological functioning. In this regard, we investigated the PTM-acetylation site of the NNAT gene in terms of 19 other specific amino acid probabilities in place of wild type (WT) through various in silico algorithms. Based on the highest pathogenic impact computed through the consensus classifier tool, we generated 3 residue-specific (K59D, P, W) structurally modified 3D models of NNAT. These models were further tested through the AutoDock Vina tool to compute the molecular drug binding affinities and inhibition constant (Ki) of structural variants and WT 3D models.

Results

With trained in silico machine learning algorithms and consensus classifier; the three structural modifications (K59D, P, W), which were also the most deleterious substitution at the acetylation site of the NNAT gene, showed the highest structural destabilization and decreased molecular flexibility. The validation and quality assessment of the 3D model of these structural modifications and WT were performed. They were further docked with drugs used to manage AN, it was found that the ΔGbind (kcal/mol) values and the inhibition constants (Ki) were relatively lower in structurally modified models as compared to WT.

Conclusion

We concluded that any future structural variation(s) at the PTM-acetylation site of the NNAT gene due to possible mutational consequences, will serve as a basis to explore its relationship with the propensity of developing AN.
