In mouse melanocytes, which express high levels of Rab38, Rab32, and Rab29, knockdown (or CRISPR knockout) of Rab38, but not Rab32 or Rab29, decreases phosphorylation of multiple LRRK2 substrates, including Rab10 and Rab12, by both endogenous LRRK2 and exogenous Parkinson’s disease-mutant LRRK2. Here, RAB38 is linked to Parkinson disease.
