Abstract excerpt
The SNCA (Synuclein Alpha) gene represents a major risk gene for Parkinson's disease (PD) and SNCA polymorphisms have been associated with the common sporadic form of PD. Numerous Genome-Wide Association Studies showed strong signals located in the SNCA 3' UTR (untranslated region) region indicating that variants in 3' UTRs of PD-associated genes could contribute to neurodegeneration and may regulate the risk for...
