Parkinson's disease mutations in PINK1 result in decreased Complex I activity and deficient synaptic function

Parkinson's disease mutations in PINK1 result in decreased Complex I activity and deficient synaptic function

Mutations of the mitochondrial PTEN (phosphatase and tensin homologue)-induced kinase1 (PINK1) are important causes of recessive Parkinson disease (PD). Studies on loss of function and overexpression implicate PINK1 in apoptosis, abnormal mitochondrial morphology, impaired dopamine release and motor...
