    •Parkinson’s disease (PD) is the second most common neurodegenerative disorder.•Recently, Deng et al. identified a new gene (TMEM230) in a large Canadian Mennonite family with PD.•We evaluate the presence of TMEM230 mutations in a cohort of 168 familial PD and 500 control subjects from South Italy.•We found a rare missense variant (p.Ile125Met) in a 64-years old woman and four synonymous variant in our population.•Other studies are needed to clarify the role of the TMEM230 gene in the pathogenesis of Parkinson’s disease.
