Mutation | Pathogenicity | DNA Change | Expected RNA | Protein Consequence | Coding/Non-Coding | Genomic Region | Neuropathology | Biological Effect | Primary Papers |
---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
G417A |
AD : Not Classified | Substitution | Substitution | Missense | Coding | Exon 12 | Unknown, but MRI and PET are consistent with AD in one case. PiB-PET showed diffuse amyloid in the cerebellum, and the frontal, parietal, and temporal cortices. |
Unknown, but in silico analyses predict mutation is damaging (PolyPhen2, SIFT, Provean). Changes in amino acid bulkiness, polarity, and hydrophobicity, together with 3D modeling, suggest reduced flexibility in transmembrane helix. Splicing may also be affected. |

G417S |
AD : Not Classified, SP : , Parkinsonism : | Substitution | Substitution | Missense | Coding | Exon 12 | Cotton wool plaques throughout cortex, abundant Aβ deposits in cerebellum and spinal gray matter (one patient). Also, CAA, extensive neuronal loss, astrocytic and microglial markers, and extensive distribution of neocortical Lewy bodies. TDP-43 inclusions in limbic region and temporal cortex. |
Increased Aβ42 and the Aβ42/Aβ40 ratio in cultured cells. |
