Well-established cause of cerebral amyloid angiopathy. Loss of function is not the mechanism of disease. Disease-causing missense substitutions cause an increased accumulation of amyloid-beta protein in the walls of the arteries and capillaries of the meninges, cerebellar cortex and cerebral cortex, leading to the weakening and eventual rupture of these vessels.
