Structural and functional landscape of α-synuclein fibril conformations amplified from cerebrospinal fluid
2022-07-13
Abstract excerpt
Lewy body dementias are pathologically defined by the deposition of α-synuclein fibrils into inclusions throughout the brain. Cerebrospinal fluid(CSF) in disease harbors circulating α-synuclein-fibril seeds, and parental α-synuclein fibrils can template core structure into amplified fibrils. Using cryo-electron microscopy, we identify six novel α-synuclein fibril assemblies amplified from ten CSF samples (3.8Å to...
