Parkinson's Disease (PD) is a relatively common neurodegenerative disorder, which is characterized by the loss of midbrain dopamine (DA) neurons and the presence of Lewy bodies, proteinaceous cytoplasmic inclusions that are abundantly enriched in ubiquitin. It is identified a number of potential substrates for parkin, which may be involved in the pathogenesis of PD. Autosomal Recessive Juvenile Parkinsonism (AR-JP) is a recently described form of Parkinson’s Disease that has been linked to a gene that codes for parkin. Parkin, a 52 kDa protein, has a suggested role in the ubiquitin/proteasome pathway for protein degradation. The amino terminus bears sequence homology to ubiquitin while functionally it acts as a RING-type ubiquitin protein ligase (E3) that coordinates the transfer of ubiquitin to substrate proteins, thus targeting them for degradation by the proteasome.
