About This Section

Entrez Gene summary for SNCA:
Alpha-synuclein is a member of the synuclein family, which also includes beta- and gamma-synuclein. Synucleins are
abundantly expressed in the brain and alpha- and beta-synuclein inhibit phospholipase D2 selectively. SNCA may serve
to integrate presynaptic signaling and membrane trafficking. Defects in SNCA have been implicated in the pathogenesis
of Parkinson disease. SNCA peptides are a major component of amyloid plaques in the brains of patients with
Alzheimer's disease. Four alternatively spliced transcripts encoding two different isoforms have been identified for
this gene. (provided by RefSeq, Mar 2009)

UniProtKB/Swiss-Prot: SYUA_HUMAN, P37840
Function: May be involved in the regulation of dopamine release and transport. Induces fibrillization of
microtubule-associated protein tau. Reduces neuronal responsiveness to various apoptotic stimuli, leading to a
decreased caspase-3 activation

Post-translational modifications:

  • Phosphorylated, predominantly on serine residues. Phosphorylation by CK1 appears to occur on residues distinct from the
  • residue phosphorylated by other kinases. Phosphorylation of Ser-129 is selective and extensive in synucleinopathy
    lesions. In vitro, phosphorylation at Ser-129 promoted insoluble fibril formation. Phosphorylated on Tyr-125 by a
    PTK2B-dependent pathway upon osmotic stress1
  • Hallmark lesions of neurodegenerative synucleinopathies contain alpha-synuclein that is modified by nitration of
  • tyrosine residues and possibly by dityrosine cross-linking to generated stable oligomers1
  • Ubiquitinated. The predominant conjugate is the diubiquitinated form (By similarity)1
  • Acetylation at Met-1 seems to be important for proper folding and native oligomeric structure1

  • Note=Genetic alterations of SNCA resulting in aberrant polymerization into fibrils, are associated with
  • several neurodegenerative diseases (synucleinopathies). SNCA fibrillar aggregates represent the major non A-beta
    component of Alzheimer disease amyloid plaque, and a major component of Lewy body inclusions. They are also found
    within Lewy body (LB)-like intraneuronal inclusions, glial inclusions and axonal spheroids in neurodegeneration with
    brain iron accumulation type 1
  • Defects in SNCA are the cause of Parkinson disease type 1 (PARK1) [MIM:168601]. A complex neurodegenerative
  • disorder characterized by bradykinesia, resting tremor, muscular rigidity and postural instability. Additional
    features are characteristic postural abnormalities, dysautonomia, dystonic cramps, and dementia. The pathology of
    Parkinson disease involves the loss of dopaminergic neurons in the substantia nigra and the presence of Lewy bodies
    (intraneuronal accumulations of aggregated proteins), in surviving neurons in various areas of the brain. The disease
    is progressive and usually manifests after the age of 50 years, although early-onset cases (before 50 years) are
    known. The majority of the cases are sporadic suggesting a multifactorial etiology based on environmental and genetic
    factors. However, some patients present with a positive family history for the disease. Familial forms of the disease
    usually begin at earlier ages and are associated with atypical clinical features
  • Defects in SNCA are the cause of Parkinson disease type 4 (PARK4) [MIM:605543]. A complex neurodegenerative
  • disorder with manifestations ranging from typical Parkinson disease to dementia with Lewy bodies. Clinical features
    include parkinsonian symptoms (tremor, rigidity, postural instability and bradykinesia), dementia, diffuse Lewy body
    pathology, autonomic dysfunction, hallucinations and paranoia
  • Defects in SNCA are the cause of dementia Lewy body (DLB) [MIM:127750]. A neurodegenerative disorder
  • clinically characterized by mental impairment leading to dementia, parkinsonism, often with fluctuating cognitive
    function, visual hallucinations, falls, syncopal episodes, and sensitivity to neuroleptic medication. Brainstem or
    cortical intraneuronal accumulations of aggregated proteins (Lewy bodies) are the only essential pathologic features.
    Patients may also have hippocampal and neocortical senile plaques, sometimes in sufficient number to fulfill the
    diagnostic criteria for Alzheimer disease
