Outline of Final Research Achievements |
Mitochondrial dysfunction is a hallmark of both idiopathic and familial Parkinson's disease (PD). In this study, detailed analysis of mitochondrial dysfunction caused by loss of PINK1 revealed both of mitochondrial Complex I and III deficiencies. Recently, CHCHD2 was identified as a novel causative gene in mendelian forms of Parkinson’s disease. In this study, it was shown that CHCHD2 was localized in mitochondrial intermembrane space.
