Findings

The I2147M variant was identified in the European Early-Onset Dementia Consortium dataset (Verheijen et al., 2016): In a cohort of 1255 Alzheimer’s cases and 1938 controls, a Spanish AD case was found to be a heterozygous carrier of this variant. The carrier’s age of onset was 65 years, and it is not known whether she had a family history of AD.

Subsequently, this variant was reported in two of 5198 AD 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 (Campion et al., 2019).

In a study that included 15,808 Alzheimer’s cases and 16,097 control subjects from multiple European and American cohorts, including ADSP, this allele was observed four times—twice among the AD cases and twice among the controls (Holstege et al., 2022).

The I2147M variant is classified as likely benign by the criteria of Holstege et al. (Holstege et al., 2017).

Functional Consequences

The variant was predicted to be damaging by SIFT, but benign by Mutation Taster and PolyPhen-2 (Verheijen et al., 2016).
