摘要: Alternative splicing is an important mechanism to generate a large number of mRNAs, thus increasing proteome diversity and tissue specificity. Three transcript variants alpha-synuclein, neuronal protein mainly involved in synapses, have been described so far. Whereas alpha-synuclein 140 the whole main transcript, 112 126 are short proteins that result from in-frame deletions exons 3 5, respectively. Because aforesaid isoforms show differential expression changes Lewy body diseases (LBDs), present work, we searched for fourth isoform studied its levels LBD brains. By using isoform-specific primers, co-amplification direct sequencing, identified 98, which lacks 5. mRNA analyses non-neuronal revealed 98 brain-specific splice variant with varying different areas fetal adult brain. Additionally, by real-time semi-quantitative RT-PCR frontal cortices patients compared them those Alzheimer disease (AD) control subjects. Overexpression AD brains would indicate specific involvement pathogenesis these neurodegenerative disorders.
