uniprot entry name :
SYUA_HUMAN
specificity :
This item recognises human alpha-synuclein.The alpha-synuclein gene, located on chromosome 4, has been linked to early onset autosomal dominant Parkinson's disease. The protein is abundant in the nervous system, and is known to be the precursor of the non-beta amyloid component protein (NACP) of Alzheimer's disease. Alpha-synuclein has also been found to be associated with other neurodegenerative diseases such as multiple system atrophy and dementia with Lewy's bodies.

ncbi 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. Four alternatively spliced transcripts encoding two different isoforms have been identified for this gene. [provided by RefSeq, Mar 2009]
