Findings

This mutation was identified in a French study that screened 129 individuals with sporadic AD diagnosed according to the National Institute of Aging–Alzheimer’s Association criteria with an age at onset below 51 (Lanoiselée et al., 2017). The mutation carrier had progressive cognitive decline beginning at age 47, and a disease duration of 4 years. The carrier was homozygous for the APOE 3 allele. Examination of parental DNA indicated the mutation arose de novo. The mutation was absent from the exome database ExAC, including approximately 60,000 controls.

Neuropathology

Unknown.

Biological Effect

Another mutation at this site, PSEN1 G111V, was also found in an individual with early onset AD and was reported to alter Aβ production in transfected cells. Based on the pathogenicity criteria developed by Guerreiro and colleagues (Guerreiro et al., 2010), this mutation was classified as probably pathogenic (Lanoiselée et al., 2017). 

Several in silico algorithms (SIFT, Polyphen-2, LRT, MutationTaster, MutationAssessor, FATHMM, PROVEAN, CADD, REVEL, and Reve in the VarCards database) predicted this variant is damaging (Xiao et al., 2021).
