The kinase LRRK2 is implicated in Parkinson’s disease progression and is known to be phosphorylated. Chia et al.show that this phosphorylation is mediated by the kinase CK1a, and is required for the recruitment of LRRK2 to Golgi-derived vesicles, suggesting a role for this protein in Golgi maintenance.
