Notes

rs63750064, also known as D678H and D678N, represents two rare mutations in the APP gene. The G>C mutation for this SNP leads to D678H, apparently associated with early-onset Alzheimer's disease, inherited dominantly, although perhaps based on only one publication.AlzForum The G>A mutation for this SNP leads to D678N, apparently also associated with early-onset Alzheimer's disease, inherited dominantly, and also based on only one publication.AlzForum
