Abstract excerpt
Parkinson's disease-causing leucine-rich repeat kinase 2 (LRRK2) mutations lead to varying degrees of Rab GTPase hyperphosphorylation. Puzzlingly, LRRK2 GTPase-inactivating mutations-which do not affect intrinsic kinase activity-lead to higher levels of cellular Rab phosphorylation than kinase-activating mutations. Here, we investigate whether mutation-dependent differences in LRRK2 cellular localization could...
