A genome-wide association study of 4,514 unrelated Caribbean Hispanics identified a novel locus rs75002042 in FBXL7 associated with late-onset Alzheimer's disease (OR=0.61, p=6.19E-09), confirmed in an expanded cohort of 5,300 subjects (OR=0.63, p=4.7E-08). The study also identified rs7431992 in CACNA2D3 (OR=1.59, p=1.99E-08) and replicated six previously known LOAD loci.

About TOMM40

The protein encoded by this gene is localized in the outer membrane of the mitochondria. It is the channel-forming subunit of the translocase of the mitochondrial outer membrane (TOM) complex that is essential for import of protein precursors into mitochondria. Alternatively spliced transcript variants have been found for this gene. [provided by RefSeq, Aug 2015]
