Findings

In a study of 1255 cases and 1938 controls from the European Early Onset Dementia Consortium, an Italian subject with early onset Alzheimer’s disease (age of onset 59 years) and a family history of AD was found to be a heterozygous carrier of this variant (Verheijen et al., 2016).

No additional carriers were found among 5198 AD cases and 4491 controls from the Alzheimer’s Disease Sequencing Project from whom whole-exome sequencing data were available, 1779 AD cases and 1273 controls from the Alzheimer Disease Exome Sequencing France (ADESFR) project, 332 cases and 676 controls of European ancestry from the United Kingdom and North America (Campion et al., 2019), or 640 cases and 1268 controls from a multi-center Dutch sample (Holstege et al., 2017).

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

Functional Consequences

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