Overview
Pathogenicity: Alzheimer's Disease : Pathogenic
Clinical Phenotype: Alzheimer's Disease
Reference Assembly: GRCh37 (105)
Position: Chr14:73637703 G>T
dbSNP ID: rs63750852
Coding/Non-Coding: Coding
Mutation Type: Point, Missense
Codon Change: GTG to TTG
Reference Isoform: PSEN1 isoform 1 (467 aa)
Genomic Region: Exon 4
Findings
This rare missense mutation was identified in a Han Chinese family. The reported pedigree consisted of three affected individuals over four generations. The affected family members were diagnosed with probable Alzheimer's disease according to NINCDS-ADRDA criteria. The mean age of onset was 36.5 ± 15.9 years. The mutation was present in all three affected individuals and absent in five healthy family members and 50 healthy unrelated controls (Jia et al., 2005).
Neuropathology
Postmortem analysis was unavailable, but MRI from two mutation carriers showed enlarged lateral ventricles and atrophy of the cerebral cortex, especially the temporal lobes (Jia et al., 2005).
Biological Effect
Human neuroblastoma cells (SH-SY5Y) transfected with V97L PSEN1 had elevated intracellular and extracellular Aβ42 compared to mock-transfected cells and those expressing wild-type PSEN1 (Fang et al., 2006). However, an in vitro assay using purified proteins to test the ability of this mutant to cleave the APP-C99 substrate revealed slight decreases in Aβ40 and Aβ42 production (Sun et al., 2017).
Other effects reported for this mutation include decreased expression and activity of insulin-degrading enzyme in the cytosol and endoplasmic reticulum (Qin and Jia, 2008), enhanced sensitivity to trophic withdrawal (Fang and Jia, 2008), and disruption of intracellular calcium homeostasis (Wang et al., 2015; Tong et al., 2016; Sep 2016 news).
