One in a family of structurally related proteins that are prominently expressed in the central nervous system. Aggregated alpha-synuclein proteins form brain lesions that are hallmarks of some neurodegenerative diseases (synucleinopathies).

Another form of hereditary Parkinson disease is due to a triplication of SNCA. See also: Parkinson disease gene.
