Protein Description	A Parkinson's disease-related point mutant (A53T) of alpha-Synuclein. A53T mutant of α-synuclein was overexpressed in E. coli and the recombinant protein was purified to apparent homogeneity by taking advantage of the thermosolubility of the protein and by using conventional column chromatography techniques.
Storage	Store (in aliquots) at -20°C. Avoid repeated freezing and thawing.
Stability	Shelf life: one year from despatch.

Summary	Alpha-synuclein is a member of the synuclein family, which also includes beta- and gamma-synuclein. Synucleins are abundantly expressed in the brain and alpha- and beta-synuclein inhibit phospholipase D2 selectively. SNCA may serve to integrate presynaptic signaling and membrane trafficking. Defects in SNCA have been implicated in the pathogenesis of Parkinson disease. SNCA peptides are a major component of amyloid plaques in the brains of patients with Alzheimer's disease. Alternatively spliced transcripts encoding different isoforms have been identified for this gene. [provided by RefSeq, Feb 2016]

Protein Pathways	Alzheimer's disease, Parkinson's disease
