Leucine-rich repeat kinase 2 variation related to disease susceptibility displays many features that reflect the nature of complex, late-onset sporadic disorders like Parkinson's disease. Methods: The Genetic Epidemiology of Parkinson's Disease Consortium recently performed the largest genetic association study for variants in the leucine-rich repeat kinase 2 gene across 23 different sites in 15 countries. Results: Herein, we detail the allele frequencies for the novel risk factors (p.A419V and p.M1646T) and the protective haplotype (p.N551K-R1398H-K1423K) nominated in the original publication. Simple population allele frequencies not only can provide insight into the clinical relevance of specific variants but also can help genetically define patient groups. Conclusions: Establishing individual patient-based genomic susceptibility profiles that incorporate both risk factors and protective factors will determine future diagnostic and treatment strategies. ? 2013 Movement Disorder Society.[SDGs]SDG3leucine rich repeat kinase 2; allele; Alzheimer disease; article; disease predisposition; dyskinesia; gene frequency; genetic epidemiology; genetic risk; genetic screening; genetic susceptibility; genetic variability; human; impulse control disorder; Parkinson disease; priority journal; risk factor; association study; genetics; LRRK2; Parkinson's disease; Gene Frequency; Genetic Association Studies; Genetic Predisposition to Disease; Genetics, Population; Genotype; Haplotypes; Humans; Molecular Epidemiology; Parkinson Disease; Polymorphism, Single Nucleotide; Protein-Serine-Threonine KinasesPopulation-specific frequencies for LRRK2 susceptibility variants in the genetic epidemiology of Parkinson's disease (GEO-PD) consortiumjournal article10.1002/mds.25600239137562-s2.0-84886446293
