Findings

In a study that included 15,808 Alzheimer’s cases and 16,097 control subjects from multiple European and American cohorts, this allele was observed twice among the AD cases (Holstege et al., 2022)..

In a European cohort of 1255 early onset Alzheimer’s disease cases and 1938 controls, two controls from Belgium, 70 and 82 years of age, were heterozygous carriers of the E1543D variant (Verheijen et al., 2016).

The E1543D variant also was seen in one of 1383 Alzheimer’s cases from the Centre National de Référence - Malades Alzheimer Jeunes (CNR-MAJ), the French national reference center for young Alzheimer patients (Rovelet-Lecrux et al., 2021). CNR-MAJ contributed data to the 2022 study cited above.

The E1543D variant is classified as likely benign by the criteria of Holstege et al. (Holstege et al., 2017).

Functional Consequences

This variant was predicted to be tolerated by SIFT, benign by Mutation Taster, and benign by PolyPhen-2 (Verheijen et al., 2016).

In a study investigating the effects of SORL1 missense mutations on protein processing, the E1543D variant did not affect the maturation (glycosylation) or trafficking to the plasma membrane of SORL1 overexpressed in HEK293 cells (Rovelet-Lecrux et al., 2021).
