We identified one large kindred harboring the Lrrk2 R1514Q substitution; however, the variant did not segregate fully with disease. Combined analyses of three case-control series demonstrate that the R1514Q substitution is not associated with increased risk of disease (OR: 1.3; 95% CI: 0.6-2.8; P = 0.45)....
