Supplementary information

Alpha-synuclein often referred to by alternate names such as SNCA is a protein of around 14 kDa mass. It mainly expresses in the brain particularly in presynaptic nerve terminals. This protein functions mechanically by stabilizing synaptic vesicles and maintaining synaptic function. It exists both in soluble monomer forms and as aggregates in protein filaments. Antibodies like 4D6 and EP1536Y target monomer forms of protein for more detailed studies.
Biological function summary

The alpha-synuclein protein plays critical roles in neuronal activity. It contributes to neurotransmitter release regulation by acting in the formation and plasticity of the presynaptic neuronal network. Alpha-synuclein doesn't usually form parts of large protein complexes but it may associate transiently with membranes and vesicular structures. The protein's monomer form has also been observed in alpha lines and related neuronal processes operating alongside various cellular functions.

Pathways

Synaptic vesicle trafficking and dopamine neurotransmitter release are significant areas involving the alpha-synuclein protein. In these pathways alpha-synuclein interacts with other proteins like synaptophysin and protein monomer monomerizations are intrinsic to these processes. Altered function or aggregation of alpha-synuclein disrupts these pathways influencing broader neurological functions.

Alterations or accumulations of alpha-synuclein are strongly linked to Parkinson's disease and Lewy body dementia. In these conditions alpha-synuclein forms abnormal protein filaments known as Lewy bodies within neurons. These formations disrupt cellular processes and neuron health. Synucleinopathies such as these show connections with proteins like parkin and DJ-1 which also have key roles in these neurodegenerative diseases.

Target data

Neuronal protein that plays several roles in synaptic activity such as regulation of synaptic vesicle trafficking and subsequent neurotransmitter release (PubMed : 20798282, PubMed : 26442590, PubMed : 28288128, PubMed : 30404828). Participates as a monomer in synaptic vesicle exocytosis by enhancing vesicle priming, fusion and dilation of exocytotic fusion pores (PubMed : 28288128, PubMed : 30404828). Mechanistically, acts by increasing local Ca(2+) release from microdomains which is essential for the enhancement of ATP-induced exocytosis (PubMed : 30404828). Also acts as a molecular chaperone in its multimeric membrane-bound state, assisting in the folding of synaptic fusion components called SNAREs (Soluble NSF Attachment Protein REceptors) at presynaptic plasma membrane in conjunction with cysteine string protein-alpha/DNAJC5 (PubMed : 20798282). This chaperone activity is important to sustain normal SNARE-complex assembly during aging (PubMed : 20798282). Also plays a role in the regulation of the dopamine neurotransmission by associating with the dopamine transporter (DAT1) and thereby modulating its activity (PubMed : 26442590).
