p(HGNC:PARK7)
Miller and colleagues (Miller et al., 2003) have recently shown that this mutation destabilizes DJ-1 via promotion of its rapid, UPS-mediated degradation PubMed:14556719
DJ-1 activity may be regulated by SUMOylation, as it was found that it binds to the SUMO E3 PIASx (Takahashi et al., 2001). PubMed:14556719

In addition, miR‐34‐b and miR‐34‐c have been shown to experience a significant reduction in patients with Parkinson’s compared with controls, and this reduction is accompanied by a decrease in the expression of DJ‐1 protein PubMed:30663117

It has been shown that DJ‐1 protein levels in patients with PD are significantly lower compared with the healthy subjects PubMed:30663117
The PARK 7 gene on chromosome 1 is responsible for coding the DJ‐1 protein. This protein acts as chaperon in the neurons, thus preventing the aggregation of the α‐synuclein protein PubMed:30663117
It also inhibits apoptosis and prevents the death of neuron PubMed:30663117
