Dynamic and redundant regulation of LRRK2 and LRRK1 expressionSaskia Biskup
Institute for Cell Engineering and Department of Neurology, Johns Hopkins University School of Medicine, Baltimore, USA
BMC Neurosci 8:102. 2007..The expression profiles of the murine LRRK proteins have not been fully described and insufficiently characterized antibodies have produced conflicting results in the literature...
Parkinson's disease-associated mutations in LRRK2 link enhanced GTP-binding and kinase activities to neuronal toxicityAndrew B West
Institute for Cell Engineering, The Johns Hopkins University School of Medicine, Baltimore, MD 21205, USA
Hum Mol Genet 16:223-32. 2007..These results suggest a link between LRRK2 kinase activity and pathogenic mechanisms relating to neurodegeneration, further supporting a gain-of-function role for LRRK2 mutations...
Unexpected lack of hypersensitivity in LRRK2 knock-out mice to MPTP (1-methyl-4-phenyl-1,2,3,6-tetrahydropyridine)Eva Andres-Mateos
Neuroregeneration Program, Institute for Cell Engineering, Johns Hopkins University School of Medicine, Baltimore, Maryland 21205, USA
J Neurosci 29:15846-50. 2009..Thus, PD due to LRRK2 mutations are likely not due to a loss of function. Moreover, LRRK2 is not required for the susceptibility of DA neurons to MPTP...
Neurodegenerative phenotypes in an A53T α-synuclein transgenic mouse model are independent of LRRK2João Paulo L Daher
Neuroregeneration and Stem Cell Programs, Institute for Cell Engineering, Johns Hopkins University School of Medicine, Baltimore, MD 21205, USA
Hum Mol Genet 21:2420-31. 2012..These observations fail to provide support for a pathophysiological interaction of LRRK2 and α-synuclein in vivo, at least within neurons of the mouse hindbrain...
Parkinson's disease-associated mutations in leucine-rich repeat kinase 2 augment kinase activityAndrew B West
Institute for Cell Engineering, Department of Neurology, The Johns Hopkins University School of Medicine, Baltimore, MD 21205, USA
Proc Natl Acad Sci U S A 102:16842-7. 2005..These results suggest a gain-of-function mechanism for LRRK2-linked disease with a central role for kinase activity in the development of PD...
Localization of LRRK2 to membranous and vesicular structures in mammalian brainSaskia Biskup
Institute for Cell Engineering, Johns Hopkins University School of Medicine, Baltimore, MD 21205, USA
Ann Neurol 60:557-69. 2006..The studies herein explore the localization of LRRK2 in the mammalian brain...
Detrimental deletions: mitochondria, aging and Parkinson's diseaseSaskia Biskup
Institute for Cell Engineering, Johns Hopkins University School of Medicine, Baltimore, MD, USA
Bioessays 28:963-7. 2006....
