Early-onset parkinsonism in a pedigree with phosphoglycerate kinase deficiency and a heterozygous carrier: do PGK-1 mutations contribute to vulnerability to parkinsonism?

Early-onset Parkinson’s disease: a new genetic link Mutations in the gene encoding phosphoglycerate kinase 1 (PGK-1) may confer susceptibility to early-onset Parkinson’s disease (PD). PGK-1 is a crucial protein for the breakdown of sugar in the body and mutations that cause PGK-1 deficiency lead to...
