ABSTRACT
The orexin/hypocretin receptor type 1 (OX1R) plays a crucial role in regulating various physiological functions, especially feeding behavior, addiction, and reward. Genetic variations in the OX1R have been associated with several neurological disorders. In this study, we utilized a combination of sequence and structure-based computational tools to identify the most deleterious missense single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) in the OX1R gene. Our findings revealed four highly conserved and structurally destabilizing missense SNPs, namely R144C, I148N, S172W, and A297D, located in the GTP-binding domain. Molecular dynamics simulations analysis demonstrated that all four most detrimental mutant proteins altered the overall structural flexibility and dynamics of OX1R protein, resulting in significant changes in the structural organization and motion of the protein. These findings provide valuable insights into the impact of missense SNPs on OX1R function loss and their potential contribution to the development of neurological disorders, thereby guiding future research in this field.
