Description: Parkinson is the second most common neurodegenerative disease after Alzheimers. About 1 percent of people over the age of 65 and 3 percent of people over the age of 75 are affected by the disease. The mutation is the most common cause of Parkinson disease identified to date. Defects in PINK1 are the cause of autosomal recessive early-onset Parkinson's disease 6 (PARK6). Six novel pathogenic PINK1 mutations suggest that PINK1 may be the second most common causative gene next to parkin in parkinsonism with the recessive mode of inheritance. Strong evidence indicates that, although important in mendelian forms of Parkinson's disease (PD), PINK1 does not influence the cause of sporadic nonmendelian forms of PD.
Immunogen: A portion of amino acids 493-526 from the human protein was used as the immunogen for this PINK1 antibody.
Storage: Aliquot the PINK1 antibody and store frozen at -20 °C or colder. Avoid repeated freeze-thaw cycles.
