Findings

The N1809S variant has been found in both Alzheimer’s disease cases and in controls (Campion et al., 2019; Fernández et al., 2016; Gómez-Tortosa et al., 2018; Holstege et al., 2017; Holstege et al., 2022; Verheijen et al., 2016), and does not appear to associate with disease risk (Campion et al., 2019; Fernández et al., 2016; Holstege et al., 2022).

Within a Spanish family in which four of eight siblings were diagnosed with AD (ages of onset ranging from 72 to 78 years), the variant did not segregate with disease: Among the four individuals genotyped, the variant was found in one affected person and in two people who remained unaffected at ages 78 and 79; conversely, one of the affected siblings was a non-carrier (Gómez-Tortosa et al., 2018).

The N1809S variant is classified as likely benign by the criteria of Holstege et al. (Gómez-Tortosa et al., 2018; Holstege et al., 2017) and the guidelines of the American College of Medical Genetics and Genomics (Gómez-Tortosa et al., 2018).

Functional Consequences

The N1809S variant was predicted to be tolerated by SIFT, but deleterious by Mutation Taster and PolyPhen-2 (Campion et al., 2019).

aAllele frequencies as reported by study authors or calculated by Alzforum curators from data provided in the study, assuming heterozygosity if not explicitly stated in the paper.

This table is meant to convey the range of results reported in the literature. As specific analyses, including co-variates, differ among studies, this information is not intended to be used for quantitative comparisons, and readers are encouraged to refer to the original papers. Thresholds for statistical significance were defined by the authors of each study. (Significant results are in bold.) Note that data from some cohorts may have contributed to multiple studies, so each row does not necessarily represent an independent dataset. While every effort was made to be accurate, readers should confirm any values that are critical for their applications.
