"The human brain contains a protein called alpha-synuclein (aSyn), which is found mainly at the tips of neurons in structures called pre-synaptic terminals. In Parkinson's and some other neurodegenerative disorders, the aSyn protein becomes destabilized, misfolds and aggregates into insoluble fibrils, a hallmark of Parkinson's."
"We wanted to understand why the normally healthy, monomeric and soluble aSyn suddenly starts to misfold," says Dr. Amberley Stephens, first co-author of the research paper, at the University of Cambridge Department of Chemical Engineering and Biotechnology.
