Leucinom bogata ponavljajuća kinaza 2 (LRRK2), znano i kao dardarin (od baskijske riječi dardara što znači drhtanje) i PARK8 (od ranije identificirane povezanosti s Parkinsonovom bolešću), je kinazni enzim koji je kod ljudi kodiran genom LRRK2.[5] LRRK2 je član kinazne porodice leucinski bogatih enzima. Varijante ovog grna povezuju se sa Parkinsonovo i Crohnovom bolešču.[5][6]

Funkcija

uredi

Gen LRRK2 kodira protein sa ponavljajućom armadilo (ARM) regijom, pnavljajućom ankirinskom (ANK) regijom, domenima leucinski bogatog ponavljanja (LRR), kinaze, RAS, GTPaza i WD40. Protein je prisutan uglavnom u citoplazmi, ali se povezuje i sa vanjskom mitohondrijskom membranom.

LRRK2 stupa u interakciju sa C-terminalnim R2 domenom RING prsta parkin, a parkin u interakciju sa COR domenom LRRK2. Ekspresija se javlja u mutantima apoptotske ćelijske smrti, izazvane mutacijom LRRK2 u ćelijama neuroblastoma i u mišjim korteksnim neuronima.[8]

Ekspresija mutanata LRRK2 upletena u autosomno dominantnu Parkinsonovu bolest uzrokuje skraćivanje i pojednostavljivanje dendritskog stabla in vivo i u kultiviranim neuronima (in vitro).[9] Posredovano je djelimično i izmjenama u makroautofagiji,[10][11][12][13][14] i može se prevenirati protein-kinazom A, putem regulacije autopfagijskog proteina LC3.[15] Mutacije G2019S i R1441C izazivaju postsinapsnu neravnotežu kalcija, što mitofagijom dovodi do viška mitohondrijskog klirensa dendrita.[16] LRRK2 je također supstrat za šaperonski posredovanu autofagiju.[17]

Klinički značaj

uredi

Mutacije u ovom genu su povezane sa Parkinsonovom bolešćutype 8.[18]

Mutacija Gly2019Ser rezultira povećanom aktivnošću kinaze i relativno je čest uzrok porodične Parkinsonove bolesti kod kavkazoida.[19] Može uzrokovati i sporadičnu Parkinsonovu bolest. Mutirana Gly aminokiselina konzervirana je u svim kinaznim domenima svih vrsta.

Mutacija Gly2019Ser jedna je od malog broja mutacija LRRK2 za koje je dokazano da uzrokuju Parkinsonovu bolest. Od njih, Gly2019Ser je najčešći u zapadnom svijetu i čini ~2% svih slučajeva Parkinsonove bolesti u sjevernoameričkih kavkazoida. Ova mutacija je učestalija je u određenim populacijama, a nalazi se u približno 20% svih pacijenata s Aškenazi jevrejskom Parkinsonovom bolešću i u približno 40% svih pacijenata s Parkinsonovom bolešću sjevernoafričkog berberskog porijekla.[20][21]

Neočekivano, studije pridruživanja širom genoma otkrile su povezanost između LRRK2 i Crohnove bolesti, kao i s Parkinsonovom bolešću, što ukazuje na to da dvije bolesti imaju zajedničke puteve.[22][23]

Napravljeni su pokušaji uzgoja kristala LRRK2 na brodu Međunarodne svemirske stanica, jer okruženje niske gravitacije čini protein manje osjetljivim na sedimentaciju i konvekciju, pa se stoga može kristalizirati.[24]

Mutacije u genu LRRK2 glavni su faktor koji doprinosi genetičkoj osnovi i razvoju Parkinsonove bolesti (PD), a pokazalo se da preko 100 mutacija u ovom genu povećava šanse za razvoj PD. Ove mutacije najčešće su u sjevernoafričkim arapskim berberskim, kineskim i japanskim populacijama.[25]
