Background An X-linked levodopa-responsive parkinsonism-epilepsy syndrome has been associated with PGK1 , and the gene lies within the previously suspected PD locus PARK12 . Objective To examine the association of common and rare PGK1 variants with PD. Methods We analyzed common and rare variants from Accelerated Medicines Partnership - Parkinson’s Disease (AMP-PD) and UK Biobank (UKBB, total N=4,523 PD cases, 19,736 proxy cases, and 390,532 controls). To account for the X-linked location of PGK1 , we used sex-stratified, combined regression models and optimized sequence Kernel association (SKAT-O) tests, followed by meta-analysis using MetaSKAT. Results We found no association between common or rare PGK1 variants and PD in sex-stratified or combined analyses, including after cross-cohort meta-analysis. Conclusion Although we did not find evidence supporting an association between PGK1 and PD, very rare pathogenic PGK1 variants may still contribute to syndromic parkinsonism. Future research could explore larger datasets to further examine this potential association.
