Abstract excerpt
The aggregation of α-synuclein is linked directly to the histopathology of Parkinson's disease (PD). However, several missense mutations present in the α-synuclein gene (SNCA) have been known to be associated with PD. Several studies have highlighted the effect of SNCA mutations on the α-synuclein aggregation, but their pathological roles are not completely established. In this study, we have focused on the...
