LRRK2 Phosphorylates Neuronal Elav RNA-Binding Proteins to Regulate Phenotypes Relevant to Parkinson’s Disease
2022-04-25
Abstract excerpt
Parkinson’s disease (PD) is characterized by accumulation of α -synuclein and the loss of dopaminergic neurons. Mutations which cause an increase in the kinase activity of Leucine-Rich-Repeat Kinase-2 (LRRK2) are a major inherited cause of PD. Research continues to determine which targets LRRK2 phosphorylates to cause disease. Polymorphisms in the locus of ELAVL4, an RNA-binding protein are a risk-factor for Par...
