Intrinsically disordered proteins (IDPs), such as tau, beta-amyloid (Aβ), and alpha-synuclein (αSyn), are prone to misfolding, resulting in pathological aggregation and propagation that drive neurodegenerative diseases, including Alzheimer’s disease (AD), frontotemporal dementia (FTD), and Parkinson’s disease (PD). The gene discussed is SNCA; the disease is early-onset autosomal dominant Alzheimer disease.
