Proteasome dysfunction in aged human α-synuclein transgenic mice

A deficit in proteasome function in Parkinson's disease has been speculated. We characterized the ubiquitin–proteasome system in three regions of brain from transgenic and nontransgenic littermates. Mice expressing a doubly mutated form of human α-synuclein had significant impairments whereas m...
