Genes affected
PSEN2 (HGNC:9509): (presenilin 2) Alzheimer's disease (AD) patients with an inherited form of the disease carry mutations in the presenilin proteins (PSEN1 or PSEN2) or 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 act are protease enzymes. Two alternatively spliced transcript variants encoding different isoforms of PSEN2 have been identified. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008]

Alzheimer disease 4 Uncertain:1Benign:1
Aug 08, 2017
Illumina Laboratory Services, Illumina
Significance:Benign
Review Status:criteria provided, single submitter
Collection Method:clinical testing

This variant was observed as part of a predisposition screen in an ostensibly healthy population. A literature search was performed for the gene, cDNA change, and amino acid change (where applicable). Publications were found based on this search. The evidence from the literature, in combination with allele frequency data from public databases where available, was sufficient to rule this variant out of causing disease. Therefore, this variant is classified as benign. -

Labcorp Genetics (formerly Invitae), Labcorp
Significance:Uncertain significance
Review Status:criteria provided, single submitter
Collection Method:clinical testing

This missense change has been observed in individual(s) with Alzheimer disease (PMID: 18350357, 30598257, 30636737). This variant is present in population databases (rs202178897, gnomAD 0.03%). This sequence change replaces valine, which is neutral and non-polar, with methionine, which is neutral and non-polar, at codon 139 of the PSEN2 protein (p.Val139Met). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 448149). In summary, the available evidence is currently insufficient to determine the role of this variant in disease. Therefore, it has been classified as a Variant of Uncertain Significance. Experimental studies have shown that this missense change does not substantially affect PSEN2 function (PMID: 32087291). Advanced modeling of protein sequence and biophysical properties (such as structural, functional, and spatial information, amino acid conservation, physicochemical variation, residue mobility, and thermodynamic stability) performed at Invitae indicates that this missense variant is not expected to disrupt PSEN2 protein function. -

PSEN2-related disorder Uncertain:1

PreventionGenetics, part of Exact Sciences
Significance:Uncertain significance
Review Status:no assertion criteria provided
Collection Method:clinical testing

The PSEN2 c.415G>A variant is predicted to result in the amino acid substitution p.Val139Met. This variant has been reported in three patients with late onset Alzheimer’s Disease (Bernardi et al. 2008. PubMed ID: 18350357; El Bitar et al. 2019. PubMed ID: 30636737; Jayadev et al. 2010. PubMed ID: 20375137). In vitro studies showed the p.Val319Met variant did not increase Aβ levels and was not predicted to be pathogenic (Hsu et al. 2020. PubMed ID: 32087291). This variant is reported in 0.030% of alleles in individuals of East Asian descent in gnomAD. At this time, the clinical significance of this variant is uncertain due to the absence of conclusive functional and genetic evidence. -

Significance:Likely benign
Review Status:criteria provided, single submitter
Collection Method:clinical testing

This variant was observed as part of a predisposition screen in an ostensibly healthy population. A literature search was performed for the gene, cDNA change, and amino acid change (where applicable). No publications were found based on this search. Allele frequency data from public databases allowed determination this variant is unlikely to cause disease. Therefore, this variant is classified as likely benign. -
