Caspase-mediated Parkin Cleavage in Apoptotic Cell Death
1 May 2002
Abstract excerpt
The parkin protein is important for the survival of the neurons that degenerate in Parkinson's disease as demonstrated by disease-causing lesions in the parkin gene. The Chinese hamster ovary and the SH-SY5Y cell line stably expressing recombinant human parkin combined with epitope-specific parkin antibodies were used to investigate the proteolytic processing of human parkin during apoptosis by immunoblotting....
