Function
The protein expressed by the gene LRRK2 is a serine/threonine-protein kinase that phosphorylates a wide range of proteins involved in neuronal plasticity, autophagy, and vesicle trafficking. It serves as a key regulator of RAB GTPases by affecting the GTP/GDP exchange and interaction partners of RABs through phosphorylation, targeting proteins like RAB3A, RAB3B, and others. LRRK2 manages the GDP/GTP exchange for RAB8A by phosphorylating 'Thr-72', inhibiting RAB8A's interaction with GDI1/GDI2, and influencing primary ciliogenesis to enhance SHH signaling in the brain. It works with RAB29 in retromer-dependent recycling of proteins between lysosomes and the Golgi. The protein is involved in shaping neuronal morphology in the CNS, synaptic vesicle trafficking, and recruiting SEC16A to assist in ER to Golgi transport. It enhances autophagy via the CaMKK/AMPK pathway and relates to nicotinic acid adenine dinucleotide phosphate receptors and lysosomal activity. LRRK2 phosphorylates PRDX3 and APP, influencing neuron apoptosis. Independently, it inhibits MAPT degradation, fostering MAPT oligomerization. Additionally, LRRK2 possesses GTPase activity that regulates its kinase activity. This supplementary information is collated from multiple sources and compiled automatically.

Notes
Human LRRK2 SimpleStep ELISA® kit is a single-wash 90 min sandwich ELISA designed for the quantitative measurement of LRRK2 protein in Cell Lysate. Quantitate Human LRRK2 with 4.057 pg/ml sensitivity.
SimpleStep ELISA® technology employs capture antibodies conjugated to an affinity tag that is recognized by the monoclonal antibody used to coat our SimpleStep ELISA® plates. This approach to sandwich ELISA allows the formation of the antibody-analyte sandwich complex in a single step, significantly reducing assay time. See the SimpleStep ELISA® protocol summary in the image section for further details. Our SimpleStep ELISA® technology provides several benefits:
-Single-wash protocol reduces assay time to 90 minutes or less
-High sensitivity, specificity and reproducibility from superior antibodies
-Fully validated in biological samples
-96-wells plate breakable into 12 x 8 wells strips
A 384-well SimpleStep ELISA® microplate (ab203359) is available to use as an alternative to the 96-well microplate provided with SimpleStep ELISA® kits.

- Activity summary
The protein LRRK2 also known as leucine-rich repeat kinase 2 or dardarin is an enzyme with a molecular weight of approximately 286 kDa. It functions as a kinase meaning it adds phosphate groups to other proteins which affects their activity. LRRK2 is expressed in various tissues but it is highly abundant in the brain especially in regions such as the striatum and cortex. It has a significant role in cellular signaling processes due to its phosphorylation activity.
- Biological function summary
LRRK2 interacts with cellular mechanisms by regulating cytoskeletal dynamics autophagy and vesicle trafficking. It is a part of a larger complex that includes other proteins involved in these processes. The kinase activity of LRRK2 plays an essential part in maintaining neuronal health and function. It influences the process of autophagy which is a way cells clean themselves by removing damaged components and recycling them.
- Pathways
The action of LRRK2 is central to the mitogen-activated protein kinase (MAPK) and the mammalian target of rapamycin (mTOR) pathways. In these pathways LRRK2 interacts with other proteins such as mTOR and RPS6KB1. It modulates cellular processes like growth proliferation and response to stressors. Its kinase activity affects the phosphorylation state of targets within the pathways hence influencing biological outcomes like survival and apoptosis.
- Associated diseases and disorders
LRRK2 mutations have a significant connection to Parkinson's disease and Crohn's disease. In Parkinson's disease mutated LRRK2 leads to abnormal protein aggregation linking to proteins such as alpha-synuclein. For Crohn's disease LRRK2 influences the immune response and intestinal inflammation. These connections highlight LRRK2's role in the pathogenesis and contribute to understanding these complex disorders.
