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 once among the AD cases and once among the controls (Holstege et al., 2022).

Previously, one of 4491 controls but none of 5198 AD cases were found to carry the R1490H variant in a dataset from the Alzheimer’s Disease Sequencing Project (ADSP), consisting of subjects of non-Hispanic Caucasian ancestry from whom whole-exome sequencing data were available (Campion et al., 2019). The ADSP contributed data to the 2022 study cited above.

Control carriers also were identified in a Caucasian sample from the United Kingdom and North America (one of 676 controls and none of 332 AD cases; (Sassi et al., 2016)) and a Dutch sample (one of 1268 controls and none of 640 AD cases; (Holstege et al., 2017)). The cohorts comprising the Dutch sample also contributed to the 2022 study.

The R1490H 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, disease-causing by Mutation Taster, and benign by PolyPhen-2 (Sassi et al., 2016).
