Pathways to Parkinson’s disease: a spotlight on 14-3-3 proteins

Abstract 14-3-3s represent a family of highly conserved 30 kDa acidic proteins. 14-3-3s recognize and bind specific phospho-sequences on client partners and operate as molecular hubs to regulate their activity, localization, folding, degradation, and protein–protein interactions. 14-3-3s are also as...
