Identified several interacting molecules involved in signaling mechanism(s) to known Parkinson’s disease and Parkinsonism genes. Various domains of Parkin (PARK2), Lrrk2 (PARK8), GIGYF2 (PARK11), and HtrA2 (PARK13) were used in Yeast-Two-Hybrid system for screening of interacting molecules. 1) Molecular biology: cDNA library screening and gene cloning (cloned over 100 human cDNA). RT-PCR, DNA sequence analyses, SNP identif...
