Findings

The D2065V variant has been found in both Alzheimer’s cases and controls in multiple studies of people of European descent (Fernández et al., 2016; Nicolas et al., 2016; Nicolas et al., 2018; Sassi et al., 2016; Vardarajan et al., 2015; Verheijen et al., 2016). The variant did not associate with disease in the four cohorts in two studies in which association was tested statistically (Fernández et al., 2016; Sassi et al., 2016). Nor did it associate with AD in a meta-analysis of five studies including more than 18,000 subjects of European or European American ancestry (Campion et al., 2019) or a mega-analysis of nearly 32,000 subjects from multiple European and American datasets (Holstege et al., 2022). The lack of association persisted when the latter dataset was expanded to more than 40,000 subjects (Holstege et al., 2023).

In a Spanish family with a history of AD, the variant did not segregate with disease: Of the three affected siblings who were genotyped, two carried the mutation, but one did not (Gómez-Tortosa et al., 2018).

The D2065V variant is classified as likely benign by the criteria of Holstege et al. (Holstege et al., 2017) and by the American College of Medical Genetics and Genomics guidelines (Gómez-Tortosa et al., 2018).

Functional Consequences

Two studies reported that the aspartate-to-valine substitution was predicted to be tolerated by SIFT, probably damaging by PolyPhen, and disease causing by Mutation Taster (Campion et al., 2019; Sassi et al., 2016), while two other studies reported that all three tools predicted that the variant would be damaging (Nicolas et al., 2016; Nicolas et al., 2018). gnomAD reported that SIFT predicted the variant is deleterious and PolyPhen called it probably damaging (searched May 19, 2023).

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

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.
