Potent inhibitors of toxic alpha-synuclein identified via cellular time-resolved FRET biosensors

Abstract We have developed a high-throughput drug discovery platform, measuring fluorescence resonance energy transfer (FRET) with fluorescent alpha-synuclein (αSN) biosensors, to detect spontaneous pre-fibrillar oligomers in living cells. Our two αSN FRET biosensors provide complementary insight in...
