Genome-wide association analysis identifies APOE as a mitophagy modifier in Lewy body disease.

Phosphorylated ubiquitin (p-S65-Ub) is generated during PINK1-PRKN mitophagy as a specific marker of mitochondrial damage. Despite the widespread deposition of p-S65-Ub in aged and diseased human brain, the genetic contribution to its accumulation remains unclear.
