Abstract excerpt
DJ-1 is a highly conserved protein that protects neurons against oxidative stress and whose loss of function mutations are linked to recessively inherited Parkinson's disease (PD). While a number of signaling pathways have been shown to be regulated by DJ-1, its role in controlling cell survival through non-coding RNAs remains poorly understood. Here, using a microarray screen, we found that knocking down DJ-1 in...
