Gene Description

PINK1 (PTEN-induced kinase 1) is a mitochondrially targeted Ser/Thr protein kinase. Mutations in PINK1 cause autosomal recessive early-onset Parkinson disease (PARK6). PINK1 has an N-terminal mitochondrial targeting sequence, a single transmembrane segment and a C-terminal kinase domain with distinctive inserts. It acts as a sensor of mitochondrial damage. In healthy, polarized mitochondria the PINK1 precursor is imported through TOM/TIM23 and cleaved by MPP and the inner-membrane rhomboid protease PARL. The resulting fragment is released to the cytosol and degraded by the proteasome, so steady-state levels are very low. When import is blocked by loss of membrane potential or protein misfolding, full-length PINK1 accumulates at the TOM complex on the outer membrane with its kinase domain facing the cytosol, dimerizes and autophosphorylates. It then phosphorylates ubiquitin at Ser65 (including ubiquitin already conjugated to outer-membrane proteins) and Ser65 in the ubiquitin-like domain of the E3 ligase Parkin (PRKN). Phospho-ubiquitin recruits Parkin and, together with Ubl phosphorylation, relieves Parkin autoinhibition. The resulting feed-forward loop coats damaged mitochondria with phospho-ubiquitin chains that recruit autophagy receptors (OPTN, NDP52/CALCOCO2), leading to mitophagy. PINK1 also phosphorylates other substrates, including the mitochondrial chaperone TRAP1, the Miro GTPases (arresting mitochondrial transport) and DRP1 (Ser616, promoting fission). It contributes to mitochondria-derived vesicle trafficking and has broad neuroprotective, anti-apoptotic effects.

Summary: PINK1 is the upstream kinase of PINK1/Parkin-mediated mitophagy. It accumulates on depolarized mitochondria and recruits and activates Parkin, and PD-associated PINK1 mutations compromise mitophagy.
Reason: Core process, supported by multiple IMP studies and the IBA.
Supporting Evidence:
PMID:22354088
However, when mitochondrial import is compromised by depolarization, PINK1 accumulates on the mitochondrial surface where it recruits the PD-linked E3 ubiquitin ligase Parkin from the cytosol, which in turn mediates the autophagic destruction of the dysfunctional organelles.

Moreover, disease-associated PINK1 mutations also compromise the selective degradation of depolarized mitochondria.

Summary: One study reported PINK1 relocating to nuclear/chromatin fractions in neuronal cells under oxidative stress together with PARK13/HtrA2.
Reason: Unusual locations from a single study; not where PINK1 performs its established functions.

PMID:24798695
We show that PARK13 localizes to a variety of subcellular locations in neuronal cells and that PINK1, although more restrictive, also localizes to locations other than those previously reported.

Reason: This reflects an indirect consequence of PINK1 loss (accumulation of dysfunctional mitochondria, oxidative stress) rather than PINK1 directly carrying out or controlling the process.

Summary: Endogenous PINK1 immunoprecipitated from marker-controlled ER fractions of NTera2-derived human cells and mouse brain, where it binds NENF (PMID:31536960). A minor ER-associated pool; PINK1 acts on the mitochondrial outer membrane.
Reason: Minor location; not where PINK1 performs its core function. ORGANELLES check (2026-11-05): the assay is subcellular fractionation with mitochondrial, ER and MAM markers as internal controls, then immunoprecipitation of the endogenous protein, so an ER-fraction pool is shown, but the assay cannot resolve membrane from lumen and does not show kinase activity at the ER. PINK1 carries a mitochondrial transit peptide and no ER-targeting signal, so the pool is most likely cytosolic PINK1 (for example the PARL-processed form) or PINK1 at ER-mitochondria contacts; it stays at the root. The human UniProt entry no longer lists the ER (its curated locations are mitochondrial membranes and cytosol), so this IDA is the only ER evidence; MARK_AS_OVER_ANNOTATED would be the alternative if the single co-fractionation result is judged too thin.

Summary: Combined electronic annotation (GO_REF:0000120) whose sources are an ARBA rule (ARBA00028672) and the mouse and rat orthologs; neither the human, mouse (Q99MQ3) nor rat (B5DFG1) UniProt entry now lists an ER location, so the row rests on the ARBA prediction. The ER claim itself is supported only by the human IDA (PMID:31536960).
Reason: Minor location; not where PINK1 performs its core function. ORGANELLES check (2026-11-05): the electronic source is an unvetted ARBA association rule rather than a curated ortholog location (Q99MQ3 and B5DFG1 list mitochondrial outer and inner membrane and cytosol only), so on its own this row would be MARK_AS_OVER_ANNOTATED. It is kept as non-core only because the claim it makes matches the human IDA row, which recovers endogenous PINK1 from a marker-controlled ER fraction; both rows carry the same action. No sub-compartment: PINK1 has a mitochondrial transit peptide and no ER-targeting signal.

Summary: PINK1 is required for Parkin/Fbxo7-dependent ubiquitination of mitofusins and mitophagy.
Reason: PINK1 is not the E3 ligase. It drives ubiquitination by phosphorylating ubiquitin and Parkin, which makes it a positive regulator.
Supporting Evidence:
PMID:23933751
Thus, even though overexpression of human Fbxo7 can suppress parkin mutants, Fbxo7 requires PINK1 activity for its protective function consistent with the data showing Fbxo7 requires PINK1 for its translocation to the mitochondria.

Summary: Uninformative binding term from an RNAi screen for regulators of Parkin translocation.
Reason: The row is a mutant-phenotype annotation from genome-wide RNAi screens for regulators of Parkin recruitment, of which only the abstract is available, and this review itself records that PINK1 associates with the TOM complex of the mitochondrial outer membrane. Binding of a protein complex by PINK1 is therefore not in dispute, and an uninformative term is not a ground for removing a true experimental annotation. Association with the import machinery is how PINK1 is stabilized on damaged mitochondria rather than its kinase function, so the row is kept as non-core.

Core Functions

Damage-sensing ubiquitin and Parkin kinase. On depolarized or import-defective mitochondria, full-length PINK1 is stabilized at the outer-membrane TOM complex and phosphorylates Ser65 of ubiquitin (free and chain-incorporated) and of the Parkin Ubl domain. This recruits and activates Parkin and drives a feed-forward phospho-ubiquitin signal that initiates mitophagy.

    PINK1 binds and colocalizes with TRAP1 in the mitochondria and phosphorylates TRAP1 both in vitro and in vivo.
  • PMID:17579517
    We show that PINK1 protects against oxidative-stress-induced cell death by suppressing cytochrome c release from mitochondria, and this protective action of PINK1 depends on its kinase activity to phosphorylate TRAP1.

Suggested Questions for Experts

Q: Which outer-membrane ubiquitinated proteins are the physiologically dominant PINK1 phospho-ubiquitin substrates in neurons in vivo, where basal PINK1-dependent mitophagy appears minor?

Q: How significant are the non-mitophagy PINK1 substrates (TRAP1, Miro, DRP1, complex I subunits) compared with ubiquitin/Parkin in protecting dopaminergic neurons?

Suggested Experiments

Experiment: Quantify pSer65-ubiquitin in sorted dopaminergic neurons of wild-type, PINK1-KO and PINK1 kinase-dead knock-in mice under defined stresses, and correlate with mito-QC mitophagy reporters and neuron survival.

Hypothesis: PINK1-dependent ubiquitin Ser65 phosphorylation in dopaminergic neurons is triggered by physiological stress (e.g. exercise, inflammation, mtDNA stress) and is required for neuronal survival with age.

Type: in vivo phosphoproteomics and mitophagy reporter imaging
