name: leucine-rich repeat serine/threonine-protein kinase 2
def: "A protein that is a translation product of the human LRRK2 gene or a 1:1 ortholog thereof. LRRK2 belongs to a gene family known as Roco. Roco genes encode for large proteins that have a characteristic GTPase domain, named Roc, plus a domain of unknown function called COR. Several Roco proteins also contain a protein kinase domain. Leucine-rich repeat serine/threonine-protein kinase 2 contains an N-terminal repeat that is unique to this protein." [PRO:CNA, PMID:16966681]
