The influence of N-terminal acetylation on micelle-induced conformational changes and aggregation of α-Synuclein.
The biological function of α-Synuclein has been related to binding to lipids and membranes but these interactions can also mediate α-Synuclein aggregation, which is associated to Parkinson's disease and other neuropathologies. In brain tissue α-Synuclein is constitutively N-acetylated, a modifi...
