There are numerous prediction packages available. None of them
have been shown to be of any predictive value whatsoever anywhere
but within the scientific papers that describe them. However,
I'm sure the developers of said packages would insist on
disagreeing with this statement
Your best bet at prediction would be to assume the structure
did not change as a result of the mutation.
