Depositor Comments

WT: DNA sequences coding for human a-synuclein sequence (Accession No. NM_000345.3) amino acid residues 1-140 (wildtype) were amplified and ligated into the pET24 vector with an N-terminal His-tag (EMD Biosciences) and sequences were confirmed. The a-synuclein K23Q mutation was engineered using Q5 Site-Directed Mutagenesis (NEB) using the primers CCACACCCTGTTGGGTTTTCTCAG and CAGAAGCAGCAGGAAAGAC. The plasmids were transformed into BL21(DE3) E. coli (EMD Biosciences).
