ERM phosphorylation is impaired in PD patients carrying LRRK2 G2019S mutation.
CRN Team Calakos found that a #LRRK2 G2019S mutation enhances the phosphorylation of ERM proteins in PAP, which is accompanied by decreased astrocyte morphological complexity & reduced excitatory synapse density & function.

CaV1.3 channels are vital for dopamine neuron function. We found that mutant LRRK2 (G2019S) enhances their activity via CaVβ3 phosphorylation, a potential key factor in Parkinson's disease. #neuroscience #ionchannels #ParkinsonsDisease #LRRK2 #CaV1.3 www.mdpi.com/1422-0067/26...
