Physiological functions of alpha-synuclein, a protein implicated in certain types of neurodegeneration, and two other members of the same family, beta-synuclein and gamma-synuclein, are not clearly understood. It has been suggested that synucleins are involved in intracellular processes associated with

Phosphorylation is involved in numerous neurodegenerative diseases. In particular, alpha-synuclein is extensively phosphorylated in aggregates in patients suffering from synucleinopathies. However, the share of this modification in the events that lead to the conversion of alpha-synuclein to aggregated toxic species

α-Synuclein (α-syn) is a presynaptic protein present at most nerve terminals, but its function remains largely unknown. The familial forms of Parkinson's disease associated with multiplications of the α-syn gene locus indicate that overabundance of this protein might have a

Journal of neurochemistry, 89(5), 1126-1136 (2004-05-19)
The growing body of evidence suggests that intermediate products of alpha-synuclein aggregation cause death of sensitive populations of neurones, particularly dopaminergic neurones, which is a critical event in the development of Parkinson's disease and other synucleinopathies. The role of two
