Functional dissection of the α‐synuclein promoter: transcriptional regulation by ZSCAN21 and ZNF219
22 Jun 2009
Abstract excerpt
Alpha-synuclein (SNCA) is an abundant neuronal protein involved in synaptic neurotransmission. SNCA expression levels have been strongly implicated in Parkinson's disease pathogenesis. We have previously demonstrated that in the PC12 cell line elements in intron 1 may mediate SNCA transcriptional regulation in response to neurotrophins. We have now identified transcription factor (TF) binding sites in intron 1...
