What is the functional mechanism by which BIN1 P318L missense mutation increases LOAD risk?

OPEN

The novel P318L mutation shows significant association with LOAD risk, but the abstract provides no mechanistic explanation for how this amino acid change affects BIN1 protein function. Understanding this mechanism is crucial for therapeutic targeting.
