Abstract excerpt
Parkinson's disease (PD), the second most common age-related neurodegenerative disorder worldwide, is associated with mutations in several genes, one of which is LRRK2 (leucine-rich repeat kinase 2). Despite cryo-EM structures elucidating the active and inactive architectures of the wild type (WT), the regulatory mechanisms and intermediate conformational states (INTs) that facilitate the transition between these...
