Abstract excerpt
Mutations in leucine-rich repeat kinase 2 (LRRK2) have been shown to be linked with familial Parkinson's disease (FPD). Since abnormal activation of the kinase activity of LRRK2 has been implicated in the pathogenesis of PD, it is essential to establish a method to evaluate the physiological levels of the kinase activity of LRRK2. Recent studies revealed that LRRK2 phosphorylates members of the Rab GTPase family,...
