Additionally, MTs have been implicated in MSA (Hozumi, 2013) and the MT-3 isoform was found to co-localize with alpha-synuclein and coat alpha-synuclein filaments in the hallmark glial alpha-synuclein deposits (Figures 1B,C; Pountney et al., 2011). The gene discussed is MT3; the disease is multiple system atrophy.
