dbSNP ID: rs556756459
Coding/Non-Coding: Coding
DNA Change: Substitution

Findings

This variant was found in one subject with early onset Alzheimer’s disease in a sample of 852 early onset cases, 927 late-onset AD cases, and 1273 controls from the Alzheimer Disease Exome Sequencing France (ADESFR) project (Campion et al., 2019).

In a study that included 15,808 Alzheimer’s cases and 16,097 control subjects from multiple European and American cohorts, including ADESFR, this allele was observed seven times—three times among the AD cases and four times among the controls (Holstege et al., 2022). A mega-analysis of these data did not find an association between the variant and AD risk.

Functional Consequences

The R67S variant was predicted to be tolerated by SIFT, neutral by Mutation Taster, and benign PolyPhen-2 (Campion et al., 2019).

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