Variant Comments & Reference:

Cys230Ser in exon 7 suppresses a disulphide bond that maintains the 220-226 loop in the tertiary structure of the third apple domain. It is also possible that free cysteine affects other disulphide bonds such as the 226-255 bond. Aberrant or absent disulphide bonds may disrupt the protein structure leading to impaired secretion or function or increased clearance of misfolded proteins. Another mutation involving Cys230 has been described (Cys230Arg). The Cys230 residue is buried. As a consequence, the size or charge of the substituting Arg residue may contribute to protein structure disruption. In Cys230Ser however, neither size nor charge can account for the structure disruption, rather the suppression of disulphide bridges is likely to be the determinant of altered secretion.
