Abstract excerpt
BACKGROUND: The presynaptic protein alpha-synuclein is involved in a range of neurodegenerative diseases. Here we analyze potential compensatory mechanisms in alpha-synuclein null mutant mice.

RESULTS: Expression profiling by cDNA array technology in a transgenic mouse model revealed striking differences only in the...
