PINK1-mediated phosphorylation of Parkin boosts Parkin activity in Drosophila.
Two genes linked to early onset Parkinson's disease, PINK1 and Parkin, encode a protein kinase and a ubiquitin-ligase, respectively. Both enzymes have been suggested to support mitochondrial quality control. We have reported that Parkin is phosphorylated

Mutations in the gene encoding parkin (PARK2) are the most common cause of autosomal recessive juvenile-onset and young-onset parkinsonism. The few available detailed neuropathologic reports suggest that homozygous and compound heterozygous parkin mutations are characterized by severe substantia nigra pars compacta neuronal loss.To investigate whether ...

Parkin interacts with Ambra1 to induce mitophagy [PDF]
Mutations in the gene encoding Parkin are a major cause of recessive Parkinson's disease. Recent work has shown that Parkin translocates from the cytosol to depolarized mitochondria and induces their autophagic removal (mitophagy). However, the molecular

Post-translational modification of Parkin and its research progress in cancer
Clinical practice has shown that Parkin is the major causative gene found in an autosomal recessive juvenile parkinsonism (AR-JP) via Parkin mutations and that the Parkin protein is the core expression product of the Parkin gene, which itself belongs to ...

Synergistic recruitment of UbcH7~Ub and phosphorylated Ubl domain triggers parkin activation [PDF]
The E3 ligase parkin ubiquitinates outer mitochondrial membrane proteins during oxidative stress and is linked to early-onset Parkinson’s disease. Parkin is autoinhibited but is activated by the kinase PINK1 that phosphorylates ubiquitin leading to ...

Background: Synucleinopathies, which are major pathological features of Parkinson’s disease (PD), are characterized by misfolded aggregates of α-synuclein in the peripheral and central nervous system.

The Interplay among PINK1/PARKIN/Dj-1 Network during Mitochondrial Quality Control in Cancer Biology: Protein Interaction Analysis [PDF]
PARKIN (E3 ubiquitin ligase PARK2), PINK1 (PTEN induced kinase 1) and DJ-1 (PARK7) are proteins involved in autosomal recessive parkinsonism, and carcinogenic processes.

Parkin function in Parkinson's disease [PDF]
Parkinson's disease (PD) is the second most common neurodegenerative disease, and is characterized by involuntary shaking, muscle rigidity, and the progressive loss of dopaminergic neurons.

Broad activation of the ubiquitin-proteasome system by Parkin is critical for mitophagy [PDF]
Parkin, an E3 ubiquitin ligase implicated in Parkinson's disease, promotes degradation of dysfunctional mitochondria by autophagy. Using proteomic and cellular approaches, we show that upon translocation to mitochondria, Parkin activates the ubiquitin ...
