The identification of the p.A53T mutation in the SNCA gene encoding alpha-synuclein (alpha-syn), as causative of autosomal dominant Parkinson disease (PD) represented a fundamental milestone, which paved the way to the extremely prolific field of PD genetics. Despite being the oldest player in this field and only a rare cause of inherited PD, research on alpha-syn has remained incredibly active over nearly twenty...
