General description

Alpha-synuclein (UniProt P37840; also known as NACP, Non-A beta component of AD amyloid, Non-A4 component of amyloid precursor, Synuclein alpha-140) is encoded by the SNCA (also known as NACP, PARK1, PARK4) gene (Gene ID 6622) in human. Pathological aggregates are common features of many neurodegenerative diseases, such as tau neurofibrillary tangles (NFTs) in Alzheimer’s disease (AD) and frontotemporal degeneration, and α-synuclein (α-syn or αS) Lewy bodies (LBs) in Parkinson’s disease (PD) and dementia with LBs (DLB). Alpha-synuclein is a phospholipid-binding protein concentrated in presynaptic terminals where it promotes SNARE complex formation and modulates synaptic functions. Alpha-synuclein is the major component of pathologic inclusions that characterize PD, DLB, and multiple system atrophy (MSA). Research shows that αS exists not only as unfolded monomers, but in large part also as multimers, principally as ~60 kDa tetramers composed of four N-acetylated αS, that assume α-helical conformation and resist aggregation. PD-causing αS missense mutations are found to shift cellular αS from tetramers/multimers to monomers, indicating that decreased α-helical tetramers and increased unfolded monomers initiate pathogenesis. In addition, both casein kinase-1 (CK-1) and CK-2 can catalyze the phosphorylation of αS on Ser129, and Ser129-phosphorylated αS is found in αS inclusions.

Specificity

Clone 2F12 reacted with both monomeric and aggregated forms of alpha-synuclein of human, mouse, and rat species. Clone 2F12 detected both wild-type alpha-synuclein and fPD mutants (Dettmer, U., et al. (2015). Nat. Commun. 6:7314; Dettmer, U., et al. (2013). J. Biol. Chem. 288(9):6371-6385).

Immunogen

Purified human erythrocyte α-synuclein.

ELISA Analysis: A representative lot captured both pre-aggregated fibrillar recombinant α-synuclein as well as partially purified Lewy bodies (LBs) from a DLB (dementia with LBs) patient with or without prior sample denaturing by boiling with 2% SDS in a sandwich ELISA application utilizing clone SOY1 (Cat. No. MABN1818; preconjugated with Sulfo tag) as the detection antibody (Dettmer, U., et al. (2015). Nat. Commun. 6:7314).

Immunocytochemistry Analysis: A representative lot detected cytosolic localization of endogenous rat α-synuclein (αS) and exogenously overexpressed human αS by fluorescent immunocytochemistry staining of 4% paraformaldehyde-fixed, 0.25% Triton X-100-permeabilized primary rat neurons and transfected M17D human neuroblastoma cells (Dettmer, U., et al. (2015). Nat. Commun. 6:7314).

Western Blotting Analysis: A representative lot detected monomeric α-synuclein (αS) as well as αS multimers (αS60, αS80 and αS100) in extract from disuccinimidyl glutarate (DSG) cross-linked mouse brain bits, human iPSCs (both S A53T mutant and corrected isogenic line) and ESCs (both wild-type and genetically engineered isogenic αS E46K line). A significantly reduced αS60 level was seen with A53T and E46K mutants (Dettmer, U., et al. (2015). Nat. Commun. 6:7314).

Western Blotting Analysis: A representative lot detected monomeric α-synuclein (αS) as well as αS multimers (αS60, αS80 and αS100) in cytosolic extracts from disuccinimidyl glutarate (DSG) cross-linked primary rat neurons, as well as human HEL erythroid leukemia and M17D neuroblastoma cells (Dettmer, U., et al.

α-Synuclein is a presynaptic protein that regulates synaptic vesicle trafficking under physiological conditions. However, in several neurodegenerative diseases, including Parkinson's disease, dementia with Lewy bodies, and multiple system atrophy, α-synuclein accumulates throughout the neuron, including at synapses, leading to altered
