Sox6 and ALDH1A1 Truncation by Asparagine Endopeptidase Defines Selective Neuronal Vulnerability in Parkinson's Disease by Shuke Nie, Bowei Li, Mengmeng Wang, Zijun Chen, Jiayan Ren, Zixuan Li, Xinli Xu, Zhengjiang Qian, Zhongyun Xie, Jianxin Han, Zhentao Zhang, Zhaohui Zhang, Yingjie Zhu, Zuxin Chen, Xifei Yang, Keqiang Ye

“…Here, it is shown that Legumain, also known as asparagine endopeptidase (AEP), is activated in a subgroup of SRY‐box transcription factor 6 /Aldehyde dehydrogenase 1 family member A1, (Sox6+/ALDH1A1+) neurons in the ventral tier of the SNpc and cleaves Sox6 and ALDH1A1, leading to repression of Special AT‐rich sequence binding protein 1 (Satb1) that is a dimeric/tetrameric transcription factor specifically binding to AT‐rich DNA sequences, and toxic dopamine metabolite accumulation. AEP cuts Sox6 and ALDH1A1 in dopaminergic neurons that project to the locus coeruleus (LC), abolishing Sox6's transcriptive and ALDH1A1's enzymatic activities. …”
