説明

Increasing evidence suggests that α-synuclein (αS) aggregates in brains of individuals with Parkinson's disease and dementia with Lewy bodies can spread in a prion-like manner. Although the initial αS nuclei are pivotal in determining αS fibril polymorphs and resulting phenotypes, it is not clear how the initial fibril seeds are generated. Previous studies have shown that αS truncation might have an important role in αS aggregation. However, little is known about how this truncation influences αS's propagation properties. In the present study, we generated αS fibrils from a series of truncated human αS constructs, characterized their structures and conformational stabilities, and investigated their ability to convert the conformation of full-length αS
