Immunocytochemistry/ Immunofluorescence - Anti-pan Synuclein antibody (AB6176)

ICC/IF image of ab6176 stained HeLa cells. The cells were 4% formaldehyde fixed (10 min) and then incubated in 1%BSA / 10% normal goat serum / 0.3M glycine in 0.1% PBS-Tween for 1h to permeabilise the cells and block non-specific protein-protein interactions. The cells were then incubated with the antibody (ab6176, 1µg/ml) overnight at +4°C. The secondary antibody (green) was Alexa Fluor® 488 goat anti-rabbit IgG (H+L) used at a 1/1000 dilution for 1h. Alexa Fluor® 594 WGA was used to label plasma membranes (red) at a 1/200 dilution for 1h. DAPI was used to stain the cell nuclei (blue) at a concentration of 1.43µM.

Supplementary information

Pan Synuclein also known as alpha beta and gamma synucleins are small proteins with molecular masses around 14-19 kDa. These proteins are expressed largely in the central nervous system and are also present in other tissues such as the peripheral nervous system and certain types of muscles. They share structural similarities and comprise a family often involved with neurons where they play roles in various cellular processes.
Biological function summary

Synucleins participate in the regulation of synaptic function and plasticity influencing neurotransmitter release and membrane dynamics. They do not form a specific complex but can interact with lipid membranes and various cellular proteins affecting vesicular transport processes. These proteins hold influence over essential cellular functions that depend on synaptic activity and efficiency.

Pathways

Synucleins involve themselves in important neuronal pathways such as those controlling dopamine neurotransmission and regulation of mitochondrial functions. They interact with key proteins like parkin and ubiquitin which participate in protein degradation pathways. Synucleins' roles in these pathways highlight their impact on both synaptic transmission and energy metabolism within neurons.

Synucleins have strong connections to neurodegenerative disorders like Parkinson's disease and dementia with Lewy bodies. In these disorders alpha-synuclein in particular forms aggregates known as Lewy bodies contributing to neuronal dysfunction. These aggregates interact with proteins such as tau and amyloid-beta further linking synucleins to the pathology of these disorders. Understanding these interactions provides insights into potential targets for therapeutic interventions.

Target data

The protein expressed by the SNCA gene is involved in various synaptic activities, including the regulation of synaptic vesicle trafficking and neurotransmitter release. As a monomer, it enhances synaptic vesicle exocytosis through vesicle priming, fusion, and dilation of exocytotic fusion pores. Mechanistically, it increases local Ca(2+) release, which is crucial for ATP-induced exocytosis. In its multimeric membrane-bound form, SNCA acts as a molecular chaperone, assisting in the folding of synaptic fusion components known as SNAREs at the presynaptic plasma membrane, in conjunction with cysteine string protein-alpha/DNAJC5, a function that is vital for maintaining normal SNARE-complex assembly during aging. Additionally, SNCA plays a role in dopamine neurotransmission regulation by associating with the dopamine transporter (DAT1) and modulating its activity.
