Two genes linked to early onset Parkinson's disease, PINK1 and Parkin, encode a protein kinase and a ubiquitin-ligase, respectively. Both enzymes have been suggested to support mitochondrial quality control. We have reported that Parkin is phosphorylated at Ser65 within the ubiquitin-like domain by PINK1 in mammalian cultured cells. However, it remains unclear whether Parkin phosphorylation is involved in mitochondrial maintenance and activity of dopaminergic neurons in vivo. Here, we examined the effects of Parkin phosphorylation in Drosophila, in which the phosphorylation residue is conserved at Ser94. Morphological changes of mitochondria caused by the ectopic expression of wild-type Parkin in muscle tissue and brain dopaminergic neurons disappeared in the absence of PINK1. In contrast, phosphomimetic Parkin accelerated mitochondrial fragmentation or aggregation and the degradation of mitochondrial proteins regardless of PINK1 activity, suggesting that the phosphorylation of Parkin boosts its ubiquitin-ligase activity. A non-phosphorylated form of Parkin fully rescued the muscular mitochondrial degeneration due to the loss of PINK1 activity, whereas the introduction of the non-phosphorylated Parkin mutant in Parkin-null flies led to the emergence of abnormally fused mitochondria in the muscle tissue. Manipulating the Parkin phosphorylation status affected spontaneous dopamine release in the nerve terminals of dopaminergic neurons, the survivability of dopaminergic neurons and flight activity. Our data reveal that Parkin phosphorylation regulates not only mitochondrial function but also the neuronal activity of dopaminergic neurons in vivo, suggesting that the appropriate regulation of Parkin phosphorylation is important for muscular and dopaminergic functions. Parkinson's disease is a neurodegenerative disorder caused by degeneration of the midbrain dopaminergic system in addition to other nervous systems. PINK1 and parkin, which encode protein kinase and ubiquitin-ligase, respectively, were identified as the genes responsible for the autosomal recessive form of juvenile Parkinson's disease. These two enzymes are involved in mitochondrial maintenance. Although we previously found that Parkin is phosphorylated by PINK1 in mammalian cultured cells, the physiological significance of this interaction in vivo remained unclear. Here, we describe that the phosphorylation of Parkin altered mitochondrial morphology and function in muscle tissue through the degradation of mitochondrial GTPase proteins (such as Mitofusin and Miro) and a mitochondrial respiratory complex I subunit by increasing its ubiquitin-ligase activity. We also found that the dopaminergic expression of both constitutively phosphorylated and non-phosphorylated forms of Parkin affects the flight activity and shortens the lifespan of flies, suggesting that the appropriate phosphorylation of Parkin is important for both dopaminergic activity and the survival of dopaminergic neurons.
