Brief description Parkinson's disease is a progressive, disabling, age-associated neurological disorder with no known cure. Several genes have been identified as causing Parkinson's disease, although mutations in leucine-rich repeat kinase2 (LRRK2) are by far the most common. The studies we propose will identify the cellular proteins that interact with LRRK2 to cause Parkinson's disease. These proteins may be amenable to future therapeutic manipulation.
