Overview
Pathogenicity: Alzheimer's Disease : Pathogenic
Clinical Phenotype: Alzheimer's Disease
Reference Assembly: GRCh37 (105)
Position: Chr14:73653571 C>T
dbSNP ID: NA
Coding/Non-Coding: Coding
Mutation Type: Point, Missense

Reference Isoform: PSEN1 isoform 1 (467 aa)
Genomic Region: Exon 6
Findings
This mutation was described in a 75-year-old man who met NINCDS-ADRDA criteria for probable AD (Roeber et al., 2015). In addition to memory problems, his symptoms included language and speech impairments, and motor symptoms including dysphagia, spasticity, brisk reflexes, and recurrent falls. The patient had a positive family history for dementia, but specifics were not reported.
Neuropathology
Unknown. Cerebral MRI showed generalized atrophy of the brain with pronounced involvement of the anterior temporal lobe, including the hippocampus.
Biological Effect
Unknown. In silico this mutation has been predicted to be possibly damaging by PolyPhen-2.
