A Parkinson's disease-related point mutant (A53T) of alpha-synuclein. A53T mutant of alpha-synuclein was overexpressed in E. coli and the recombinant protein was purified to apparent homogeneity by taking advantage of the thermosolubility of the protein and by using conventional column chromatography techniques. Alternative Names: Alpha synuclein protein, Non-A-beta component of alzheimers disease amyloid protein, NACP protein, MGC64356 protein, Non-A beta component of AD amyloid protein, , precursor of PARK 1 protein, PD1 protein, SNCA protein, alpha-Synuclein protein, alphaSYN protein, Non A4 component of amyloid precursor protein, PARK4 protein, PARK 4 protein, PD 1 protein, MGC110988 protein, PARK1 protein, Synuclein alpha protein, MGC105443 protein, Non-A4 component of amyloid precursor protein, Parkinson disease familial 1 protein, Non A beta component of AD amyloid protein, Alpha-synuclein isoform NACP140 protein, MGC127560 protein
