Significance Our report highlights, for the first time to our knowledge, a distinct relationship between lysosomal integral membrane protein type-2 (LIMP-2) expression, β-glucocerebrosidase (GC) activity, and clearance of α-synuclein. In LIMP-2–deficient mice, increased levels of endogenous α-synuclein led to severe neurological deficits and premat...
