Brain somatic mutations observed in Alzheimer’s disease associated with aging and dysregulation of tau phosphorylation

The role of brain somatic mutations in neurodegenerative diseases such as Alzheimer’s disease (AD) is not well understood. Here the authors carry out high-depth exome sequencing ~500× on brain tissue from patients with AD and controls, and identify mutations in a number of genes that are known to co...
