Centogene N.V Announces Data from the Rostock International Parkinson's Disease (ROPAD) Centogene N.V announced data from the Company’s Rostock International Parkinson's Disease (ROPAD), further supporting the association of a RAB32 gene mutation with Parkinson's disease (PD). The study, published in The Lancet Neurology, builds on research from Emil K. Gustavsson and colleagues, who previously identified the RAB32 c.213C>G (p.Ser71Arg; dbSNP rs200251693) variant as a novel monogenic cause of PD. In the ROPAD Study, Whole Genome Sequencing (WGS) data from 3,354 PD patients revealed that nine patients from Germany, Italy, Spain, and Türkiye carried the RAB32 c.213C>G mutation. This proportion of variant-positives — 0.3% of the cohort — is significantly higher than the 0.002% found in general population databases such as the Genome Aggregation Database. Key Findings: Nine ROPAD participants (0.3% of the cohort) were heterozygous for the RAB32 c.213C>G mutation, supporting the mutation's causal role in Parkinson’s disease Age at onset in mutation-positives and mutation-negatives did not differ, while gender proportions and certain clinical characteristics did. The RAB32 Ser71Arg-associated haplotype was as in the Gustavsson et al. study, supportive of a single founder mutational event These findings underscore the importance of RAB32 as an important cause of Parkinson's disease.
