T1 |
0-94 |
DRI_Challenge |
denotes |
Ribosomal protein s15 phosphorylation mediates LRRK2 neurodegeneration in Parkinson's disease. |
T2 |
95-214 |
DRI_Approach |
denotes |
Mutations in leucine-rich repeat kinase 2 (LRRK2) are a common cause of familial and sporadic Parkinson's disease (PD). |
T3 |
215-375 |
DRI_Background |
denotes |
Elevated LRRK2 kinase activity and neurodegeneration are linked, but the phosphosubstrate that connects LRRK2 kinase activity to neurodegeneration is not known. |
T4 |
376-494 |
DRI_Outcome |
denotes |
Here, we show that ribosomal protein s15 is a key pathogenic LRRK2 substrate in Drosophila and human neuron PD models. |
T5 |
495-639 |
DRI_Outcome |
denotes |
Phosphodeficient s15 carrying a threonine 136 to alanine substitution rescues dopamine neuron degeneration and age-related locomotor deficits in |
T6 |
640-652 |
Token_Label.OUTSIDE |
denotes |
G2019S LRRK2 |
T7 |
653-700 |
DRI_Outcome |
denotes |
transgenic Drosophila and substantially reduces |
T8 |
701-722 |
Token_Label.OUTSIDE |
denotes |
G2019S LRRK2-mediated |
T9 |
723-790 |
DRI_Outcome |
denotes |
neurite loss and cell death in human dopamine and cortical neurons. |
T10 |
791-976 |
DRI_Outcome |
denotes |
Remarkably, pathogenic LRRK2 stimulates both cap-dependent and cap-independent mRNA translation and induces a bulk increase in protein synthesis in Drosophila, which can be prevented by |
T11 |
977-999 |
Token_Label.OUTSIDE |
denotes |
phosphodeficient T136A |
T12 |
1000-1004 |
DRI_Outcome |
denotes |
s15. |
T13 |
1005-1143 |
DRI_Background |
denotes |
These results reveal a novel mechanism of PD pathogenesis linked to elevated LRRK2 kinase activity and aberrant protein synthesis in vivo. |
