In the present study, a novel mutation in the presenilin 1 gene was discovered in an Iraq-native patient with early-onset Alzheimer's disease, who presented with speech impairment and memory decline at age 46 years. Magnetic resonance imaging showed a frontotemporal atrophy. Sanger sequencing identified a heterozygous T to A transversion at position 815 (c.815T>A) in the presenilin 1 gene (PSEN1), resulting in a novel missense mutation at codon 272 from valine to aspartate (V272D). We tested this PSEN1 mutation in vitro and found V272D resulted in an altered Aβ42/40 ratio.
在本研究中,我们在一位伊拉克籍早发性阿尔茨海默病患者中发现了早老素 1 基因的一种新突变,该患者 46 岁时出现言语障碍和记忆力减退。磁共振成像显示额颞叶萎缩。桑格测序发现早老素 1 基因(PSEN1)第 815 位核苷酸由 T 突变为 A(c.815T>A),导致 272 位密码子由缬氨酸变为天冬氨酸(V272D)的新型错义突变。我们在体外检测了这种 PSEN1 突变,发现 V272D 导致 Aβ42/40 比值改变。
