So we assessed PD array databases, initially looking at the genes defining dopaminergic neuron development and phenotype (such as FOXA2, LMX1A, EN1, EN2, SLC18A2, TH, DDC, ALDH1A1, NR4A2, PITX3, SOX6) as well as more generic markers of a neuronal phenotype (SNCA, SYP, FABP7, GCH1, PTS, TUBB3, MAP2). The gene discussed is PTS; the disease is Parkinson disease.
