PINK1-dependent clearance of depolarized mitochondria is driven by the UPS and can occur independently of (macro)autophagy
Objective: To disect the role of macroautophagy in PINK1-/Parkin-dependent removal of depolarized mitochondria. Background: The ubiquitin ligase Parkin and mitochondrial kinase PINK1 function together in…Counteracting PINK1/parkin deficiency by activating alternative mitophagic pathway: a potential therapeutic intervention for Parkinson’s disease
Objective: To identify a new therapeutic target for developing neuroprotective treatment in Parkinson's disease (PD) by improving mitochondrial function through restoration of mitochondrial quality control…Heterozygous PINK1 p.G411S mutation increases risk for Parkinson’s disease (PD)
Objective: To investigate the possible disease-association and pathogenic mechanisms of heterozygous PINK1 mutations from a genetic, functional, and structural perspective. Background: It has been postulated…
