TypeGene ModificationChromosome rearrangementProtein expressionProtein Function
constitutional     --low  
plays a role in SNCA misfolding and toxicity
constitutional        
silencing of ATP13A2 expression in cortical and dopaminergic neurons promotes basal mitochondrial fragmentation and sensitizes to the effects of cadmium exposure
constitutional       loss of function
results in zinc dyshomeostasis and mitochondrial dysfunction
