Background
Synucleins are small, soluble proteins expressed primarily in neural tissue and in certain tumors. The family includes three known proteins: alpha synuclein, beta synuclein, and gamma synuclein. The alpha and beta synuclein proteins are found primarily in brain tissue, where they are seen mainly in presynaptic terminals. Beta synuclein protein is found in Alzheimer disease neurofibrillary lesions. The sequence of beta synuclein is 61% identical to alpha synuclein, which is also present in these lesions.Beta synuclein is an acidic protein and extremely heat-resistant. It has a chaperone-like activity and has been suggested to inhibit alpha synuclein aggregation.
