Phosphorylation dependent α-synuclein degradation monitored by in-cell NMR

Chem Commun (Camb). 2019 Sep 17;55(75):11215-11218. doi: 10.1039/c9cc05662a.

Abstract

Here we report the dephosphorylation and proteolysis of phosphorylated α-synuclein, a Parkinson's disease-related protein, in living cells in a time resolved manner using in-cell NMR.
