We describe a new mutation causing Alzheimer's disease (AD) in presenilin-1 (N135D) that is at the homologous site to the presenilin 2 mutation (N141I) in Volga German kindreds. The phenotype of PS1 N135D is an early-onset (34-38 years) disease. The mutation forms part of, and extends, the alpha-helical array of mutations in transmembrane 2 of the presenilins and leads to the suggestion that disruption of this helical face is the molecular insult that leads to disease.
我们描述了一种在早老素-1(N135D)中导致阿尔茨海默病(AD)的新突变,该突变位于伏尔加德意志人家族中早老素2突变(N141I)的同源位点。PS1 N135D的表型是早发型(34 - 38岁)疾病。该突变构成早老素跨膜2区α螺旋突变阵列的一部分并加以扩展,这表明该螺旋面的破坏是导致疾病的分子损伤。
