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 once among the controls (Holstege et al., 2022).

Previously, in a Dutch sample of 640 Alzheimer’s cases and 1268 controls, an 81-year-old control subject was found to be a heterozygous carrier of this variant. No additional carriers were found in a pan-European cohort of 1255 cases and 1938 controls in this study (Holstege et al., 2017). The cohorts comprising the Dutch sample contributed data to the 2022 study cited above.

The variant was classified as likely benign by the criteria of Holstege et al., 2017 (Holstege et al., 2017).

Functional Consequences

The G786R variant was predicted to be tolerated by SIFT, but deleterious by Mutation Taster and PolyPhen-2 (Campion et al., 2019).
