Synj1 haploinsufficiency causes dopamine neuron vulnerability and alpha-synuclein accumulation in mice
27 Apr 2020
Abstract excerpt
Synaptojanin1 (synj1) is a phosphoinositide phosphatase with dual SAC1 and 5'-phosphatase enzymatic activities in regulating phospholipid signaling. The brain-enriched isoform has been shown to participate in synaptic vesicle (SV) recycling. More recently, recessive human mutations were identified in the two phosphatase domains of SYNJ1, including R258Q, R459P and R839C, which are linked to rare forms of...
