Genetic Variation in Complex Traits in Transgenic α-Synuclein Strains of <i>Caenorhabditis elegans</i>

Different genetic backgrounds can modify the effect of mutated genes. Human α-synuclein (<i>SNCA</i>) gene encodes α-synuclein, and its oligomeric complexes accumulate with age and mediate the disruption of cellular homeostasis, resulting in the neuronal death that is characteristic of P...
