ABSTRACT:
The present invention is based on the discovery of genetic polymorphisms that are associated with neurodegenerative disease, particularly Alzheimer's disease and Parkinson's disease. In particular, the present invention relates to nucleic acid molecules containing the polymorphisms, variant proteins encoded by such nucleic acid molecules, reagents for detecting the polymorphic nucleic acid molecules and proteins, and methods of using the nucleic acid and proteins as well as methods of using reagents for their detection.
