Notes
rs63749911, also known as c.529T>C, F177L or Phe177Leu, is a SNP in the presenilin 1 PSEN1 gene. Inherited as an autosomal dominant, the rare rs63749911(C) allele is considered pathogenic for Alzheimer's disease according to AlzForum. Reported in to be a "definitely" pathogenic mutation. Although Promethease statistics do not currently show evidence that 23andMe is obviously prone to miscalling this mutation, an example of such an error (i.e. a false positive by 23andMe for this mutation) is discussed in this 2018 NY Times article.
