BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVES: Early-onset Parkinson disease (EOPD), defined as symptom onset before 50 years of age, accounts for approximately 10% of patients and is suggested to have a greater genetic component than typical late-onset forms of the disease. Recessive variants in PRKN, PINK1, and DJ-1, are the most common genetic cause of EOPD, however, most studies are in patients of white ancestry. This study aims to analyze genetic variants in PRKN, PINK1, and DJ-1 in Colombian patients to help address the gap in EOPD genetic research of South American populations.
METHODS: We analyzed 43 unrelated patients with EOPD using Sanger sequencing for the PRKN, PINK1, and DJ-1 genes and employed multiplex ligation-dependent probe amplification to detect copy number variants. Additionally, long-read whole-genome sequencing was conducted on 3 unresolved patients with age at onset before 30 years of age (long-read sequencing [LRS] patient A-C).
RESULTS: We identified known pathogenic single-nucleotide variants and copy number variants in the PRKN gene accounting for 2 patients' disease (4.6% of patients). We observed 2 pathogenic variants in PRKN (c.155delA; p.N52Mfs*29 and c.1083+1G>A) in patient 1, who reported an age at onset of 16 years. We further detected a homozygous duplication of PRKN exons 5-6 in an additional patient, age at onset of 18 years.
DISCUSSION: Our study helps characterize genetic contributors to EOPD in Colombian patients, demonstrating genetic forms (PRKN, PINK1, and DJ-1) are rare. Our results highlight a need to include diverse populations in research to improve genetic understanding of disease.
