Copper(II) Binding to α-Synuclein, the Parkinson’s Protein

[Image: see text] Variations in tryptophan fluorescence intensities confirm that copper(II) interacts with α-synuclein, a protein implicated in Parkinson’s disease. Trp4 fluorescence decay kinetics measured for the F4W protein show that Cu(II) binds tightly (K(d) ∼ 100 nM) near the N-terminus at pH...
