Cryo-EM structures of α-synuclein fibrils with the H50Q hereditary mutation reveal new polymorphs
2019-08-17
Abstract excerpt
Abstract Deposits of amyloid fibrils of α-synuclein are the histological hallmarks of Parkinson’s disease, multiple system atrophy, and dementia with Lewy bodies. Although most cases of these diseases are sporadic, autosomal-dominant hereditary mutations have been linked to Parkinson’s disease and dementia with Lewy bodies. Seeing the changes to the structure of amyloid fibrils bearing these mutations may help to...
