Findings

In a study that included 15,808 Alzheimer’s cases and 16,097 control subjects from multiple European and American cohorts, this allele was observed five times—three times among the AD cases and twice among the controls (Holstege et al., 2022). A mega-analysis of these data did not find an association between the variant and AD risk.

The variant previously was seen in one of 5198 Alzheimer's cases and none of 4491 controls in a dataset from the Alzheimer’s Disease Sequencing Project (ADSP), consisting of subjects of non-Hispanic Caucasian ancestry from whom whole-exome sequencing data were available. Three additional carriers—one Alzheimer’s disease subject and two controls—were found in a sample of 1779 AD cases and 1273 controls from the Alzheimer Disease Exome Sequencing France (ADESFR) project (Campion et al., 2019). The ADSP and ADESFR contributed to the 2022 study cited above.

Functional Consequences

The G2075A variant was predicted to be tolerated by SIFT, but deleterious by Mutation Taster and PolyPhen-2 (Campion et al., 2019).

In a study investigating the effects of SORL1 missense mutations on protein processing, the variant did not affect the maturation (glycosylation) of SORL1 overexpressed in HEK293 cells (Rovelet-Lecrux et al., 2021).
