    Product Information

    Product Description

    PhosphoPlus® Duets from Cell Signaling Technology (CST) provide a means to assess protein activation status. Each Duet contains an activation-state and total protein antibody to your target of interest. These antibodies have been selected from CST's product offering based upon superior performance in specified applications.

    Background

    α-Synuclein is a protein of 140-amino acids expressed abundantly in the brain. α-Synuclein is also the main component of pathogenic Lewy bodies and Lewy neurites. Research studies have shown that mutations of the α-Synuclein gene are linked to Parkinson's disease (1).

    Various research studies have shown that phosphorylation of α-Synuclein at Ser129 is a highly toxic event that causes degeneration of dopaminergic neurons, which are associated with Parkinson's disease. This is proposed to occur through increased misfolding, aggregation, and accumulation of α-Synuclein phosphorylated at this site (2). GSK-3β is one of several kinases that has been reported to phosphorylate α-Synuclein at Ser129 (3).
