Analysis of Parkinson's disease brain-derived DNA for alpha-synuclein coding somatic mutations.

Abstract

Although alpha-synuclein (SNCA) is crucial to the pathogenesis of Parkinson's disease (PD) and dementia with Lewy bodies (DLB), mutations in the gene appear to be rare. We have recently hypothesized that somatic mutations in early development could contribute to PD
