Diagrammatic representation of the 140 amino acid α-synuclein molecule. The amphipathic repeat region contains both hydrophilic and hydrophobic sub-regions, and the NAC (non-amyloid-β component) is involved in beta-sheet formation. Some of the important post-translational modification amino acid sites are shown.
