Evaluation of Rare MCOLN1 Variants in a Large Cohort of α‐Synucleinopathies

Yuan Gao, Ruwei Ou, Dejiang Pang, Yi Xiao et al.

Short summary

Rare MCOLN1 variants, previously linked to Parkinson's disease, were found in 1.7% of patients with α-synucleinopathies, suggesting MCOLN1's role in a broader range of these neurodegenerative diseases.

Key points

  • Rare MCOLN1 variants were identified in 1.7% of patients with α-synucleinopathies.
  • MCOLN1 variants were classified using ACMG/AMP guidelines and in silico prediction tools.
  • The findings suggest MCOLN1's involvement in a broader range of α-synucleinopathies.
  • Genomic positions were based on GRCh37.

Abstract

Note: Genomic position was based on GRCh37.Variants were classified according to the 2015 American College of Medical Genetics and Genomics (ACMG) and Association for Molecular Pathology (AMP) joint consensus guidelines, with P indicating that the variant is pathogenic.Function predictions denote whether the variant is a protein-truncating variant or a missense variant, which is predicted as pathogenic or damaging by at least 5 of 10 in silico prediction tools, with D indicating that the variant is damaging.
