Various deletion and point mutations in the gene have been found in ~50% of patients with AR-JP (known also as Autosomal Recessive Parkinson’s Disease [ARPD]), one of the most common familial forms of PD (Kitada et al., 1998). PubMed:14556719

p(HGNC:PRKN, var("?")) decreases act(p(HGNC:PRKN)) View Subject | View Object

An interesting finding is that not all mutations found in Parkin in AR-JP patients are inactivatingmutations (see,for example, Chung et al., 2001; Corti et al., 2003; Imai et al., 2001 PubMed:14556719

p(HGNC:PRKN, var("?")) increases p(HGNC:PRKN) View Subject | View Object

The overriding hypothesis is that a defect in Parkin will result in accumulation of this protein(s), which is toxic to the dopaminergic neurons PubMed:14556719

p(HGNC:PRKN, var("?")) decreases act(p(HGNC:SEPT5)) View Subject | View Object

It is possible that CDCrel-1 is involved in regulating transmitter release via its role in regulating synaptic vesicle dynamics, and its accumulation in patients with a mutation in Parkin perturbs the process. PubMed:14556719

Therefore, patients with AR-JP—who cannot degrade it because of the mutation in the Parkin E3 (see above)—develop neurodegeneration PubMed:14556719

Finally, Parkinson’s disease patients carrying familial mutations in the parkin gene, and some of those with the LRRK2 G2019S mutation, show neuronal degeneration in the absence of Lewy body formation [28, 50]. PubMed:28803412

First, autosomal recessive forms of early-onset PD are associated with mutations in PTEN-induced putative kinase protein 1 (PINK1) and the E3 ubiquitin-protein ligase parkin; these mutations lead to deficits in the mitophagic removal of damaged mitochondria 69,70 (BOX 2) . PubMed:30116051

Furthermore, mutations in the gene encoding parkin and several other genes are linked to reduced UPS activity 2,56,69,79,80 . PubMed:30116051
