Genetic and pathological links between Parkinson's disease and the lysosomal disorder Sanfilippo syndrome
AssociationN=71Sophie E. Winder‐Rhodes et al.(2012)· Movement Disorders

Doctoral dissertation investigating genetic mechanisms of lysosomal dysfunction in Parkinson's disease using targeted panel sequencing of 440 lysosomal pathway genes in 51 PD patients and 20 healthy controls. Identified 396 variants exclusively present in PD patients across 208 genes, with variants enriched in lysosomal organization, organic substance transport, and sphingolipid metabolism pathways. Functional studies confirmed that knockdown of GALC, LRBA, and ARSD genes induces lysosomal dysfunction and alpha-synuclein accumulation in cell models.

About DNAJC13

This gene encodes a member of the Dnaj protein family whose members act as co-chaperones of a partner heat-shock protein by binding to the latter and stimulating ATP hydrolysis. The encoded protein associates with the heat-shock protein Hsc70 and plays a role in clathrin-mediated endocytosis. It may also be involved in post-endocytic transport mechanisms via its associations with other proteins, including the sorting nexin SNX1. Mutations in this gene are associated with Parkinson's disease. [provided by RefSeq, Jun 2016]
