N-terminal acetylation of α-synuclein induces increased transient helical propensity and decreased aggregation rates in the intrinsically disordered monomer

The conformational properties of soluble α-synuclein, the primary protein found in patients with Parkinson's disease, are thought to play a key role in the structural transition to amyloid fibrils. In this work, we report that recombinant 100% N-terminal acetylated α-synuclein purified under mi...
