We performed an exome-wide association analysis in 1393 late-onset Alzheimer’s disease (LOAD) cases and 8141 controls from the CHARGE consortium. We found that a rare variant (P155L) in TM2D3 was enriched in Icelanders (~0.5% versus <0.05% in other European populations). In 433 LOAD cases and 3903 controls from the Icelandic AGES sub-study, P155L was associated with increased risk and earlier onset of LOAD [odds ratio (95% CI) = 7.5 (3.5–15.9), p = 6.6x10-9]. Mutation in the Drosophila TM2D3 homolog, almondex, causes a phenotype similar to loss of Notch/Presenilin signaling. Human TM2D3 is capable of rescuing these phenotypes, but this activity is abolished by P155L, establishing it as a functionally damaging allele. Our results establish a rare TM2D3 variant in association with LOAD susceptibility, and together with prior work suggests possible links to the β-amyloid cascade. Alzheimer’s disease (AD) is the most common cause of dementia in the older adult population. There is substantial evidence for an important genetic contribution to AD risk. While prior work has comprehensively evaluated the contribution of common genetic variants in large population-based cohorts, the role of rare variants remains to be defined. Here, we have used a newer genotyping array to characterize less common variants, including those likely to impact the function of encoded proteins, in a combined cohort of 1393 AD cases and 8141 control subjects without AD. Our results implicate a novel, amino acid-changing variant, P155L, in the TM2D3 gene. This variant was discovered to be more common in the Icelandic population, where it was significantly associated with both increased risk and earlier age of onset of AD. Lastly, in order to examine the potential functional impact of the implicated variant, we performed additional studies in the fruit fly. Our results suggest that P155L causes a loss-of-function in TM2D3, in the context of Notch-Presenilin signal transduction. In sum, we identify a novel, rare TM2D3 variant in association with AD risk and highlight functional connections with AD-relevant biology.
