Notes
aka c.482A>G, p.Lys161Arg rs755101354, also known as c.482A>G, K161R or Lys161Arg, is a SNP in the presenilin 2 PSEN2 gene. Inherited as an autosomal dominant, the rare rs755101354(G) allele is considered causative for early-onset Alzheimer's disease according to two publications cited in AlzForum including . The mutation is also considered "possibly" pathogenic for early-onset Alzheimer's disease in .
