Specificity and Regulation of Casein Kinase-Mediated Phosphorylation of α-Synuclein
Open accessAbstract
alpha-Synuclein (alpha-syn) is the major component of pathologic inclusions that characterize neurodegenerative disorders such as Parkinson disease, dementia with Lewy body disease, and multiple system atrophy. The present study uses novel phospho-specific antibodies to assess the presence and regulation of phosphorylated Ser87 and Ser129 in alpha-syn in human brain samples and in a transgenic mouse model of alpha-synucleinopathies. By immunohistochemistry, alpha-syn phosphorylated at Ser129, but not at Ser87, was abundant in alpha-syn inclusions. Under normal conditions, Ser129 phosphorylation, but not Ser87 phosphorylation, was detected at low levels in the soluble biochemical fractions in human alpha-syn transgenic mice and stably transfected cultured cells. Therefore, a role for Ser87 phosphorylation in alpha-synucleinopathies is unlikely, and in vitro assays showed that phosphorylation at this site would inhibit polymerization. In vitro studies also indicated that hyperphosphorylation of Ser129 alpha-syn in pathologic inclusions may be due in part to the intrinsic properties of aggregated alpha-syn to act as substrates for kinases but not phosphatases. Further studies in transgenic mice and cultured cells suggest that cellular toxicity, including proteasomal dysfunction, increases casein kinase 2 activity, which results in elevated Ser129 alpha-syn phosphorylation. These data provide novel explanations for the presence of hyperphosphorylated Ser129 alpha-syn in pathologic inclusions.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
