Abstract excerpt
Human alpha-synuclein (αS) is associated with the occurrence of Parkinson's disease. In the past decade, six autosomally dominant mutations have been identified in αS (SNCA) gene that translate into A30P, E46K, H50Q, G51D, A53E, and A53T mutations in the protein. These mutations alter the electrostatics and hydrophobicity of a cardinal region of the protein. A comprehensive comparison of interfacial properties of...
