Clinical phenotype of Parkinson's disease with a homozygous PRKN p.Cys441Arg mutation
We describe the clinical features of a Malaysian woman with Parkinson's disease ( PD) who carried the PRKN p.Cys441Arg mutation in the homozygous state. She had a fairly ``classic'' clinical presentation for PARK-Parkin, including juvenile onset and a clear response to dopaminergic me...
