Structure of LRRK2 in Parkinson’s disease and model for microtub
Leucine-rich repeat kinase 2 (LRRK2) is the most commonly mutated gene in familial Parkinson’s disease (PD)1 and is also linked to its idiopathic form2. LRRK2 is proposed to function in membrane trafficking3 and co-localizes with microtubules4. Despite LRRK2’s fundamental importance for understanding and treating PD, there is limited structural information on it. Here we report the 3.5Å structure…
