Abstract excerpt
Rare variations in coding regions may alter the amino acid sequence and function of presenilins (PSENs), which results in the dysfunction of gamma-secretase, in turn contributing to the development of familial Alzheimer's disease (AD). However, whether rare variations in the 3' untranslated region (UTR) may change the expression level of PSEN2 leading to AD remains unclear. In a familial AD pedigree, DNA samples...
