Notes

rs63750812, also known as V148I or Val148Ile, is a SNP in the presenilin PSEN2 gene. Inherited as an autosomal dominant, the rare rs63750812(A) allele is reported to be causative for early-onset Alzheimer's disease. However, the AlzForum also reports that "No change in proteolytic products PSEN2-CTF and PSEN2-NTF; no change in Aβ42 levels or the Aβ42/Aβ40 ratio", and in combination with the original report, this allele may be more of a predisposing than causative mutation.

A;G

Possible though unconfirmed Alzheimer's mutation; see discussion at rs63750812.
