The Parkinson Disease-Associated Mutant DNAJC13(N855S) Leads to Its Accelerated Degradation and Negatively Affects Macroautophagy and Retromer Complex-Mediated Dynamics.

Abstract excerpt

While Parkinson's disease has a multifactorial etiology, 5%-10% of cases present with identifiable disease-causing gene mutations. Further investigation into these mutations is a way to identify underlying pathologic mechanism. One of the rare Parkinson-associated genes is DNAJC13, coding for an endosome-associated protein. Several lines of evidence suggest that disturbed endosomal pathways are instrumental in...
