Coding/Non-Coding: Coding
Mutation Type: Point, Missense
Codon Change: AAC to TAC
Reference Isoform: PSEN1 isoform 1 (467 aa)
Genomic Region: Exon 4
Findings
This mutation was identified in a genetic screen of 757 patients in the U.K. with early onset Alzheimer’s disease (Koriath et al., 2018). It was reported as also present in the gnomAD variant database with an allele count of one and a frequency of 0.000004 (however, it was missing from gnomAD v2.1.1; August, 2019). Koriath et al. described the variant as most likely fully penetrant (95% CI > 100% penetrance), and classified it as possibly deleterious following the ACMG-AMP guidelines (Richards et al., 2015).
