Gene Information

human ... SNCA(6622)

General description

Anti-Synuclein-α antibody detects endogenous levels of total Synuclein-α protein.
The SNCA (synuclein α) gene is mapped to human chromosome 4q22.1.

Immunogen

The antiserum was produced against synthesized peptide derived from human Synuclein-alpha.

Immunogen Range: 86-135

Biochem/physiol Actions

Accumulation of α-synuclein in oligodendrocytes results in the loss of myelin and causes neurodegeneration, leading to multiple system atrophy. Synuclein-α is known to induce oligodendrocyte maturation. The encoded protein is considered to be an important aggregate of Lewy bodies, contributing to the pathogenesis of Parkinson disease.
