Moreover, VDAC1 represents the main docking site at the mitochondrial level for misfolded and aggregated proteins, a common feature of neurodegenerative disorders known as proteinopathies, such as Alzheimer’s disease (AD), Parkinson’s disease (PD), Creutzfeldt–Jacob disease (CJD), dementia with Lewy bodies (DLB), Huntington disease (HD), and amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) [30]. The gene discussed is VDAC1; the disease is Parkinson disease.
