AbstractMutations resulting in amino acid substitution influence the stability of proteins along with their binding to other biomolecules. A molecular understanding of the effects induced by protein mutations are both of biotechnological and medical relevance. The availability of empirical free energy functions that quickly estimate the free energy change upon mutation (ΔΔG) can be exploited for systematic screenings of proteins and protein complexes. Indeed, in silico saturation mutagenesis can guide the design of new experiments or rationalize the consequences of already-known mutations at the atomic level. Often software such as FoldX, while fast and reliable, lack the necessary automation features to make them useful in high-throughput scenarios. Here we introduce MutateX, a software which aims to automate the prediction of ΔΔGs associated with the systematic mutation of each available residue within a protein or protein complex to all other possible residue types, by employing the FoldX energy function. MutateX also supports ΔΔG calculations over protein ensembles and the estimation of the changes in free energy upon post-translational modifications. At the heart of MutateX lies an automated pipeline engine that handles input preparation, performs parallel runs with FoldX and outputs publication-ready figures. We here illustrate the MutateX protocol applied to the study of the mutational landscape of cancer-related proteins, industrial enzymes and protein-protein interfaces. The results of the high-throughput scan provided by our tools could help in different applications, such as the analysis of disease-associated mutations, or in the design of protein variants for experimental studies or industrial applications. MutateX is a collection of Python tools that relies on Open Source libraries and requires the FoldX software to be installed beforehand.
