Discuss the role of pink1 and parkin

Reference no: EM13718105

Literature Review: Mitochondrial dysfunction has been implicated in the pathogenesis of Parkinson's Disease.

The proteins ‘PINK1' and ‘Parkin' are involved in a key mitochondrial regulatory pathway and disruption of this pathway could therefore lead to Parkinson's Disease.

Discuss the role of PINK1 and Parkin with regard to Parkinson's Disease.
