Gene information for LRRK2 (Homo sapiens)
(Information is obtained from NCBI Gene database)
Entrez gene ID120892
Official gene symbolLRRK2
Full nameleucine-rich repeat kinase 2
Aliases,AURA17,DARDARIN,PARK8,RIPK7,ROCO2,
Gene summaryThis gene is a member of the leucine-rich repeat kinase family and encodes a protein with an ankryin repeat region, a leucine-rich repeat (LRR) domain, a kinase domain, a DFG-like motif, a RAS domain, a GTPase domain, a MLK-like domain, and a WD40 domain. The protein is present largely in the cytoplasm but also associates with the mitochondrial outer membrane. Mutations in this gene have been associated with Parkinson disease-8. [provided by RefSeq]
