Lack of CHCHD2 mutations in Parkinson's disease in a Taiwanese population.

Abstract excerpt

A recent study identified a missense mutation in coiled-coil-helix-coiled-coil-helix domain-containing 2 (CHCHD2) gene, p.Thr61Ile, in a Japanese multigenerational family with autosomal dominant Parkinson's disease (PD). Subsequent analyses identified several genetic variants in this gene that contributed to increased risk of sporadic PD, making CHCHD2 a novel candidate gene associated with PD. However,...
