The Alzheimer’s disease protective P522R variant of <i>PLCG2</i> , consistently enhances stimulus-dependent PLCγ2 activation, depleting substrate and altering cell function

Abstract excerpt
Recent genome-wide association studies of Alzheimer’s disease (AD) have identified variants implicating immune pathways in disease development. A rare coding variant of PLCG2 , which encodes PLCγ2, shows a significant protective effect for AD (rs72824905, P522R, P =5.38×10 −10 , Odds Ratio = 0.68). Molecular dynamic modelling of the PLCγ2-R522 variant, situated within the auto-inhibitory domain of PLCγ2, sugges...
