Gamma Synuclein
StressMarq Biosciences has developed an extensive range of fibrillar, oligomeric and monomeric protein preparations for use in neurodegenerative disease research including alpha synuclein, beta synuclein, gamma synuclein, tau, amyloid beta, SOD1 and TTR. Our goal is to be the world leader in the development and supply of active, pathology-inducing protein aggregates to assist scientists with disease model development and accelerate neurodegenerative disease drug discovery.
Gamma synuclein is associated with neurodegenerative diseases as well as certain cancers. Gamma synuclein can seed alpha synuclein aggregation,1 and its oxidation and aggregation is seen in Dementia with Lewy bodies,2 Parkinson’s disease,2 and ALS.3
StressMarq manufactures wild-type gamma synuclein fibrils and monomers for use in neurodegenerative disease research.
