Abstract excerpt
Leucine-rich repeat kinase 2 (LRRK2) is the most common gene responsible for familial Parkinson's disease (PD). The gene product of LRRK2 contains multiple protein domains, including armadillo repeat, ankyrin repeat, leucine-rich repeat (LRR), Ras-of-complex (ROC), C-terminal of ROC (COR), kinase...
