Abstract excerpt
Leucine Rich Repeat Kinase 1 and 2 (LRRK1 and LRRK2) are homologs in the ROCO family of proteins in humans. Despite their shared domain architecture and involvement in intracellular trafficking, their disease associations are strikingly different: LRRK2 is involved in familial Parkinson's disease while LRRK1 is linked to bone diseases. Furthermore, Parkinson's disease-linked mutations in LRRK2 are typically...
