    Alpha-synuclein enhances histone H3 lysine-9 dimethylation

    N. Sugeno, S. Jäckel, A. Voigt, T. Hasegawa, P. Kahle (Tübingen, Germany)

    Objective: To explore the nuclear function of alpha-synuclein (αS). Background: αS is a protein linked to Parkinson’s disease (PD) and related neurodegenerative disorders. It is…
