Background	The synuclein family members, including alpha-synuclein (also designated NACP for non-beta amyloid component) and beta-synuclein, are predominantly expressed in the brain and are speculated to be involved in synaptic regulation and neuronal plasticity. alpha-synuclein is localized to neuronal cell bodies and synapses. alpha-synuclein was first identified as a component of Alzheimer’s disease amyloid plaques. Abnormal platelet function in Alzheimer’s disease has been demonstrated. During megakaryocytic differentiation alpha-synuclein was found to be up-regulated, while beta-synuclein is down-regulated, indicating that coordinate expression of synucleins may be important during hematopoetic cell differentiation. A mutant form of alpha-synuclein has been found in patients with early onset Parkinson’s disease.
Synonyms	NACP, PARK1
