SNCA mutations cause autosomal dominant parkinsonism and inform our understanding of the molecular underpinnings of synucleinopathies. The most recently identified mutation, p.Ala53Glu (A53E), has only been observed in Finland. The objectives of this study were to examine clinical, genetic, epigenetic, and biochemical features of the first family outside Finland with A53E.
