Abstract excerpt
Leucine-rich repeat kinase 2 (LRRK2) is a causative gene product of autosomal-dominant Parkinson's disease and has been shown to play a role in lysosomal regulation. We have previously shown that endogenous LRRK2 recruited its substrates Rab8a and Rab10 onto overloaded lysosomes depending on their phosphorylation, which functioned in the suppression of lysosomal enlargement as well as the promotion of the...
