Congenital heart disease (CHD) represents nearly one-third of congenital birth defects annually, with ventricular septal defect (VSD) being the most common type. The aim of this study was to explore the role of specific GATA binding protein 6 gene (GATA6) mutations as a potential etiological factor in the development of VSD through an in silico approach. Data were collected from the human gene databases: DisGeNET and GeneCards, with protein-protein interaction networks constructed via STRING and Cytoscape. Gene ontology and pathway enrichment analyses were conducted using DAVID, with data analysis in R with significance set at FDR p<0.05. Target single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) of GATA6 were obtained from NCBI dbSNP, and non-synonymous single nucleotide polymorphism (nsSNP) effects were predicted using SIFT, PolyPhen-2, I-Mutant 2.0, Fathmm, MutPred 2.0, SNP&GO, and PON-P2. Conserved regions of GATA6 were analyzed using ConSurf, with functional classification, variant conservation, and stability changes evaluated in Google Colab. Multiple sequence alignment was performed using ClustalW. Mutation modeling and molecular dynamics analysis, using GROMACS, revealed that among 87 intersecting genes, 16 proteins were interconnected with GATA6, showing a centrality value of 0.4378. Gene ontology analysis highlighted atrioventricular canal development, protein-DNA complexes, and transcription factor regulation as key processes for cardiac development, especially in the ventricular septum. NsSNP and molecular dynamics analyses identified rs387906818 and rs387906820 as having the highest pathogenic potential for VSD due to amino acid structural changes.
