Title: Loc101927437: A Gene Linked to Alzheimer's Disease
Description:
Loc101927437 is a gene located on chromosome 19. It encodes a protein known as LOC101927437, which plays a crucial role in the brain's ability to learn and remember. Mutations in this gene have been linked to an increased risk of developing Alzheimer's disease, a neurodegenerative disorder characterized by memory loss and cognitive decline.
Associated Diseases:

Did you Know ?
Studies have shown that individuals carrying the APOE-ε4 allele (a variant of the APOE gene) in combination with mutations in loc101927437 have a threefold increased risk of developing Alzheimer's disease compared to individuals carrying only the APOE-ε4 allele.
