Abstract excerpt
While alpha- and beta-synuclein largely overlap in their expression in the vertebrate brain, only alpha-synuclein accumulates in the fibrillar aggregates typical of Parkinson's disease. It is thus critical to have immunological reagents that distinguish between these two protein isoforms. The monoclonal antibody Syn-1 (Transduction Labs) has been frequently used for the specific detection of alpha-synuclein. In...
