Function Positively regulates autophagy through a calcium- dependent activation of the CaMKK/AMPK signaling pathway. The process involves activation of nicotinic acid adenine dinucleotide phosphate (NAADP) receptors, increase in lysosomal pH, and calcium release from lysosomes. Together with RAB29, plays a role in the retrograde trafficking pathway for recycling proteins, such as mannose 6 phosphate receptor (M6PR), between lysosomes and the Golgi apparatus in a retromer-dependent manner. Regulates neuronal process morphology in the intact central nervous system (CNS). Phosphorylates PRDX3. May also have GTPase activity. May play a role in the phosphorylation of proteins central to Parkinson disease. {ECO:0000269PubMed:17114044, ECO:0000269PubMed:20949042, ECO:0000269PubMed:21850687, ECO:0000269PubMed:22012985, ECO:0000269PubMed:23395371}.

Disease Associations Parkinson disease 8 (PARK8) [MIM:607060]: A slowly progressive neurodegenerative disorder characterized by bradykinesia, rigidity, resting tremor, postural instability, neuronal loss in the substantia nigra, and the presence of neurofibrillary MAPT (tau)-positive and Lewy bodies in some patients. {ECO:0000269PubMed:15541308, ECO:0000269PubMed:15541309, ECO:0000269PubMed:15680455, ECO:0000269PubMed:15680456, ECO:0000269PubMed:15680457, ECO:0000269PubMed:15726496, ECO:0000269PubMed:15732108, ECO:0000269PubMed:15811454, ECO:0000269PubMed:15852371, ECO:0000269PubMed:15880653, ECO:0000269PubMed:15925109, ECO:0000269PubMed:15929036, ECO:0000269PubMed:16102999, ECO:0000269PubMed:16157901, ECO:0000269PubMed:16157908, ECO:0000269PubMed:16157909, ECO:0000269PubMed:16172858, ECO:0000269PubMed:16240353, ECO:0000269PubMed:16247070, ECO:0000269PubMed:16250030, ECO:0000269PubMed:16251215, ECO:0000269PubMed:16272164, ECO:0000269PubMed:16272257, ECO:0000269PubMed:16298482, ECO:0000269PubMed:16333314, ECO:0000269PubMed:16533964, ECO:0000269PubMed:18213618, ECO:0000269PubMed:22956510}. Note=The disease is caused by mutations affecting the gene represented in this entry.
Tissue Specificity Expressed in the brain. Expressed in pyramidal neurons in all cortical laminae of the visual cortex, in neurons of the substantia nigra pars compacta and caudate putamen (at protein level). Expressed throughout the adult brain, but at a lower level than in heart and liver. Also expressed in placenta, lung, skeletal muscle, kidney and pancreas. In the brain, expressed in the cerebellum, cerebral cortex, medulla, spinal cord occipital pole, frontal lobe, temporal lobe and putamen. Expression is particularly high in brain dopaminoceptive areas. {ECO:0000269PubMed:15541308, ECO:0000269PubMed:15541309, ECO:0000269PubMed:16532471, ECO:0000269PubMed:17120249}.
