Description-en: predicts if a substitution in a protein has a phenotypic effect
SIFT is a sequence homology-based tool that sorts intolerant from tolerant
amino acid substitutions and predicts whether an amino acid substitution
in a protein will have a phenotypic effect. SIFT is based on the premise
that protein evolution is correlated with protein function. Positions
important for function should be conserved in an alignment of the protein
family, whereas unimportant positions should appear diverse in an alignment.
