Domain mapping of disease mutations reveals pathogenic SORL1 variants in Alzheimer's disease
Background: Protein truncating variants (PTVs) in SORL1 are observed almost exclusively in Alzheimer's Disease (AD) cases, but the effect of rare SORL1 missense variants is unclear. Methods: To identify high-priority missense variants (HPVs), we applied 'domain mapping of disease mutations' for the...

| Sumario: | Background: Protein truncating variants (PTVs) in SORL1 are observed almost exclusively in Alzheimer's Disease (AD) cases, but the effect of rare SORL1 missense variants is unclear. Methods: To identify high-priority missense variants (HPVs), we applied 'domain mapping of disease mutations' for the 637 unique coding SORL1 variants detected in 18,959 AD-cases and 21,893 non-demented controls. Results: In this sample, PTVs and HPVs associated with respectively a 35- and 10-fold increased risk of early onset AD and 17- and 6-fold increased risk of overall AD. The median age at onset (AAO) of PTV- and HPV-carriers was 62 and 64 years, and APOE-genotype contributed to AAO-variability. The median AAO of PTV- and HPV-carriers is similar to 8-10 years earlier than wild-type SORL1 carriers, matched for APOE-genotype. Specific HPVs are highly penetrant and lead to earlier AAOs than PTVs, suggesting possible dominant negative effects. Conclusion: Our results justify a debate on whether HPV carriers should be considered for clinical counseling. |
