Abstract α-Synuclein is a conserved, abundantly expressed protein that is partially localized in pre-synaptic terminals in the central nervous system. The precise biological function (s) …
Aggregation of α‐synuclein, an abundant and conserved pre‐synaptic brain protein, is implicated as a critical factor in several neurodegenerative diseases. These diseases …

α-Synuclein (αsyn) is an abundant brain neuronal protein that can misfold and polymerize to form toxic fibrils coalescing into pathologic inclusions in neurodegenerative diseases …
The synuclein family of intrinsically unfolded proteins is composed of three highly homologous members, α-synuclein (αS), β-synuclein (βS) and γ-synuclein (γS), which are …
