Metal interactions of α-synuclein probed by NMR amide-proton exchange

The aberrant aggregation of α-synuclein (αS), a disordered protein primarily expressed in neuronal cells, is strongly associated with the underlying mechanisms of Parkinson’s disease. It is now established that αS has a weak affinity for metal ions and that these interactions alter its conformationa...
