Abstract excerpt
The residual solution structures of two alpha-synuclein mutants, A30P and A53T, observed in family members of patients with Parkinson's disease were compared with that of wild-type by NMR. The A53T substitution had been shown to accelerate fibril formation of alpha-synuclein, whereas the A30P mutation has the negative and positive effects on the formation of the fibril and spherical oligomer, respectively. The...
