A recent IGAP GWAS in 74,046 individuals revealed 21 loci that are significantly associated with altered AD risk, 12 of which are novel [9]: ABCA7, APOE, BIN1, CASS4, CD2AP, CD33, CELF1, CLU, CR1, EPHA1, FERMT2, HLA-DRB5/DRB1, INPP5D, MEF2C, MS4A6A, NME8, PICALM, PTK2B, SLC24A4, SORL1, and ZCWPW1. To define the functional impact of the IGAP SNPs, we used RegulomeDB and HaploReg to predict the regulatory potential of the IGAP SNPs (S1 Table) [18]. Here, CR1 is linked to Alzheimer disease.
