Our verdict is Likely benign. Variant got -5 ACMG points: 2P and 7B. PM2BP4_StrongBP6_ModerateBP7
The NM_000021.4(PSEN1):c.42A>C(p.Ala14=) variant causes a synonymous change involving the alteration of a non-conserved nucleotide. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 0.000000684 in 1,461,768 control chromosomes in the GnomAD database, with no homozygous occurrence. In-silico tool predicts a benign outcome for this variant. Variant has been reported in ClinVar as Likely benign (★).
PSEN1 (HGNC:9508): (presenilin 1) Alzheimer's disease (AD) patients with an inherited form of the disease carry mutations in the presenilin proteins (PSEN1; PSEN2) or in the amyloid precursor protein (APP). These disease-linked mutations result in increased production of the longer form of amyloid-beta (main component of amyloid deposits found in AD brains). Presenilins are postulated to regulate APP processing through their effects on gamma-secretase, an enzyme that cleaves APP. Also, it is thought that the presenilins are involved in the cleavage of the Notch receptor, such that they either directly regulate gamma-secretase activity or themselves are protease enzymes. Several alternatively spliced transcript variants encoding different isoforms have been identified for this gene, the full-length nature of only some have been determined.

Verdict is Likely_benign. Variant got -5 ACMG points.
PM2
?
PM2 - Absent from controls (or at extremely low frequency if recessive) in Exome Sequencing Project, 1000 Genomes Project, or Exome Aggregation Consortium
Very rare variant in population databases, with high coverage;
BP4
?
BP4 - Multiple lines of computational evidence suggest no impact on gene or gene product (conservation, evolutionary, splicing impact, etc.)
Computational evidence support a benign effect (BayesDel_noAF=-0.55).
BP6
?
BP6 - Reputable source recently reports variant as benign, but the evidence is not available to the laboratory to perform an independent evaluation
Variant 14-73148061-A-C is Benign according to our data. Variant chr14-73148061-A-C is described in ClinVar as [Likely_benign]. Clinvar id is 2644356.Status of the report is criteria_provided_single_submitter, 1 stars.
BP7
?
BP7 - A synonymous (silent) variant for which splicing prediction algorithms predict no impact to the splice consensus sequence nor the creation of a new splice site AND the nucleotide is not highly conserved
Synonymous conserved (PhyloP=0.05 with no splicing effect.
