Mutations

SORL1 R877C

Position: (GRCh38/hg38):Chr11:121557371 C>T
Position: (GRCh37/hg19):Chr11:121428080 C>T
dbSNP ID: rs769806986
Coding/Non-Coding: Coding
DNA Change: Substitution
Expected Protein Consequence: Missense
Codon Change: CGT to TGT
Reference Isoform: SORL1 Isoform 1 (2214 aa)
Genomic Region: Exon 19

Findings

The R877C variant was found in two of 1383 Alzheimer’s cases from the Centre National de Référence - Malades Alzheimer Jeunes (CNR-MAJ), the French national reference center for young Alzheimer patients (Rovelet-Lecrux et al., 2021).

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

Functional Consequences

This variant was predicted to be damaging by SIFT, Mutation Taster, and PolyPhen-2 (Rovelet-Lecrux et al., 2021).

In a study investigating the effects of SORL1 missense mutations on protein processing, the R877C variant did not affect the maturation (glycosylation) of SORL1 overexpressed in HEK293 cells (Rovelet-Lecrux et al., 2021).
