Scientific Background Alpha-Synuclein (SNCA) is expressed predominantly in the brain, where it is concentrated in presynaptic nerve terminals (1). Alpha-synuclein is highly expressed in the mitochondria of the olfactory bulb, hippocampus, striatum and thalamus (2). Functionally, it has been shown to significantly interact with tubulin (3), and may serve as a potential microtubule-associated protein. It has also been found to be essential for normal development of the cognitive functions; inactivation may lead to impaired spatial learning and working memory (4). SNCA fibrillar aggregates represent the major non A-beta component of Alzheimers disease amyloid plaque, and a major component of Lewy body inclusions, and Parkinson's disease. Parkinson's disease (PD) is a common neurodegenerative disorder characterized by the progressive accumulation in selected neurons of protein inclusions containing alpha-synuclein and ubiquitin (5, 6).

<p>Type 1 alpha synuclein Pre-formed fibrils (SPR-322) seed the formation of new alpha synuclein fibrils from the pool of alpha synuclein monomers (SPR-321). Thioflavin T is a fluorescent dye that binds to beta sheet-rich structures, such as those in alpha synuclein fibrils. Upon binding, the emission spectrum of the dye experiences a red-shift and increased fluorescence intensity. Thioflavin T emission curves show increased fluorescence (correlated to alpha synuclein protein aggregation) over time when 10 µM of Type 1 alpha synuclein Pre-formed fibrils (SPR-322) is combined with 100 µM of alpha synuclein monomer (SPR-321), as compared to when 10 µM of Type 2 alpha synuclein Pre-formed fibrils (SPR-317) is combined with 100 µM of alpha synuclein monomer (SPR-321) or 100 µM of alpha Synuclein monomer (SPR-316). Thioflavin T ex = 450 nm, em = 485 nm. Note: We use molecular weight of 14.46 kDa for both alpha synuclein monomer and fibril in calculations. We load 100µL/well for Thioflavin T assay so 100 µM is 144.6µg/well and 10 µM is 14.46 µg/well.</p>
