Disease-associated <i>NPC1</i> and <i>NPC2</i> variants detected in individuals with PD, FTLD, PSP, and KORA-AGE controls.
<p>Frequencies as found in the 4300 European American exomes of the NHLBI exome sequencing project (NHLBI-ESP, <a href="http://evs.gs.washington.edu/EVS/" target="_blank">http://evs.gs.washington.edu/EVS/</a>) are given for all identified variants.
