Notes

rs193922916, also known as c.2018C>T, p.Ala673Val and A673V, represents a rare mutation in the APP gene on chromosome 21. Most APP mutations leading to Alzheimer's disease are inherited dominantly, but A673V is an exception, as it appears to be inherited recessively. For more information about this mutation, see either AlzForum or OMIM. 23andMe name: i5004476

A;G

Likely to be unaffected in absence of another APP or Alzheimer mutation, as this mutation appears to be inherited recessively. See rs193922916 for more information.
