Gene Name: SNCA

Gene ID: 6622

Function: Neuronal protein that plays several roles in synaptic activity such as regulation of synaptic vesicle trafficking and subsequent neurotransmitter release. Participates as a monomer in synaptic vesicle exocytosis by enhancing vesicle priming, fusion and dilation of exocytotic fusion pores (PubMed:28288128, PubMed:30404828) . Mechanistically, acts by increasing local Ca (2+) release from microdomains which is essential for the enhancement of ATP-induced exocytosis (PubMed:30404828) . Acts also as a molecular chaperone in its multimeric membrane-bound state, assisting in the folding of synaptic fusion components called SNAREs (Soluble NSF Attachment Protein REceptors) at presynaptic plasma membrane in conjunction with cysteine string protein-alpha/DNAJC5 (PubMed:20798282) . This chaperone activity is important to sustain normal SNARE-complex assembly during aging (PubMed:20798282) . Plays also a role in the regulation of the dopamine neurotransmission by associating with the dopamine transporter (DAT1) and thereby modulating its activity (PubMed:26442590) .

Summary: Tissue Location: Highly expressed in presynaptic terminals in the central nervous system. Expressed principally in brain

Form: Purified polyclonal antibody supplied in PBS with 0.09% (W/V) sodium azide. This antibody is purified through a protein A column, followed by peptide affinity purification.
