I came across this article earlier today, and found it to be a wonderful resource for someone who wants to understand at the protein level what is going on. I'd be interested to learn if anyone knows of a better (and, especially, more recent) article at a similar level of depth.

The site won't let me post the complete URL, so could someone please reassemble this and post a reply.

While looking for Dan's article, I came across this awesome article (from 2009), about alpha-synuclein [1]. :-)

[1] α-Synuclein and neuronal cell death, Mark R Cookson, Molecular Neurodegeneration 2009 4:9, DOI: 10.1186/1750-1326-4-9.

PS: Dan, you've now done ten posts, so you could actually have done this reply yourself!

Here are a couple of more recent free-access reviews which discuss the role(s) of α-synuclein in PD and related conditions.
