Our verdict is Pathogenic. Variant got 14 ACMG points: 14P and 0B. PS1PM1PM2PM5PP2PP3_ModeratePP5
The NM_000021.4(PSEN1):c.360A>C(p.Glu120Asp) variant causes a missense change. The variant was absent in control chromosomes in GnomAD project. In-silico tool predicts a pathogenic outcome for this variant. Variant has been reported in Lovd as Pathogenic (no stars). Another nucleotide change resulting in same amino acid change has been previously reported as Pathogenicin ClinVar. Another variant affecting the same amino acid position, but resulting in a different missense (i.e. E120K) has been classified as Likely pathogenic.
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 Pathogenic. Variant got 14 ACMG points.
PS1
?
PS1 - Same amino acid change as a previously established pathogenic variant regardless of nucleotide change
Transcript NM_000021.4 (PSEN1) is affected with MISSENSE_VARIANT having same AA change as one Pathogenic present in ClinVar as 18135
PM1
?
PM1 - Located in a mutational hot spot and/or critical and well-established functional domain (e.g., active site of an enzyme) without benign variation
In a hotspot region, there are 6 aminoacids with missense pathogenic changes in the window of +-8 aminoacids around while only 0 benign, 4 uncertain in NM_000021.4
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;
PM5
?
PM5 - Novel missense change at an amino acid residue where a different missense change determined to be pathogenic has been seen before
Other missense variant is known to change same aminoacid residue: Variant chr14-73173585-G-A is described in ClinVar as [Likely_pathogenic]. Clinvar id is 98019.Status of the report is criteria_provided_single_submitter, 1 stars.
PP2
?
PP2 - Missense variant in a gene that has a low rate of benign missense variation and in which missense variants are a common mechanism of disease
Missense variant where missense usually causes diseases, PSEN1
PP3
?
PP3 - Multiple lines of computational evidence support a deleterious effect on the gene or gene product (conservation, evolutionary, splicing impact, etc.)
MetaRNN computational evidence supports a deleterious effect, 0.908
PP5
?
PP5 - Reputable source recently reports variant as pathogenic, but the evidence is not available to the laboratory to perform an independent evaluation
Variant 14-73173587-A-C is Pathogenic according to our data. Variant chr14-73173587-A-C is described in Lovd as [Pathogenic].
