PARK2 (OMIM *602544) is the parkin gene that may cause a form of autosomal recessive juvenile Parkinson disease (OMIM 600116) due to a mutation in the parkin protein. This form of genetic mutation may be one of the most common known genetic causes of early-onset Parkinson disease.In one study of patients with onset of Parkinson disease prior to age 40 (10% of all PD patients), 18% had parkin mutations, with 5% homozygous mutations.his form of genetic mutation may be one of the most common known genetic causes of early-onset Parkinson disease.

PARK7 (Parkinson Protein 7) is a Protein Coding gene. Diseases associated with PARK7 include parkinson disease 7, autosomal recessive early-onset and park7-related parkinson disease.Among its related pathways are Alpha-synuclein signaling and Androgen receptor signaling pathway.t acts as a positive regulator of androgen receptor-dependent transcription. It may also function as a redox-sensitive chaperone, as a sensor for oxidative stress, and it apparently protects neurons against oxidative stress and cell death.
