Findings

This mutation was found in a large French study reporting 56 new families with autosomal-dominant, early onset Alzheimer's disease. All probands met NINCDS-ADRDA criteria for probable AD and had a family history of disease (Wallon et al., 2012).

The M233I (G>A) mutation was detected in a family with two confirmed mutation carriers and two additional affected family members of unknown genotype. Age of onset was very early in this family, 24 to 30 years, with duration of approximately 11 years. At least one mutation carrier presented with early extrapyramidal signs. The mutation appears to segregate with disease in this family.

Neuropathology

Unknown.

Biological Effect

A cryo-electron microscopy study of the atomic structure of γ-secretase bound to an APP fragment indicates that, in wild-type PSEN1, this residue is apposed to the APP transmembrane helix, with its side-chain reaching towards the interior of the substrate-binding pore (Zhou et al., 2019; Jan 2019 news). The related M233I (G>A) mutation was classified as definitely pathogenic according to the algorithm proposed by Guerreiro et al., 2010 (Wallon et al., 2012).
