Antigen Details
- Structure
- Human α-synuclein is a 140 amino acid protein with a molecular mass of 14 kD.
- Distribution
-
Tissue distribution: Primarily nervous system, but lower expression in other tissues such as blood and skin.
Cellular distribution: Cytoskeleton, cytosol, lysosome, mitochondria, nucleus, plasma membrane, and extracellular.
- Function
- α-synuclein plays several roles in synaptic activity such as synaptic vesicle trafficking and neurotransmitter release. It is also involved in the regulation of gene expression.
- Interaction
- Interacts with various proteins, such as UCHL1, phospholipase D, histones and SNARE components.
