Protein-linked sugars are crucial for the uptake of proteins linked to Parkinson’s disease

New research shows how glycoproteins, proteins with added sugar molecules, influence the uptake of protein aggregates that are associated with Parkinson’s disease. The researchers also identified a specific presynaptic protein as a key regulator in this process, which opens the door for future research into new therapeutic targets.
