GenAge entry for SNCG (Homo sapiens)
Gene name (HAGRID: 140)
- HGNC symbol
- SNCG
- Aliases
- BCSG1; SR; persyn
- Common name
- synuclein, gamma (breast cancer-specific protein 1)
Potential relevance to the human ageing process
- Main reason for selection
- Entry selected based on evidence linking the gene product to the regulation or control of genes previously linked to ageing
- Description
SNCG is a member of the synuclein family of proteins which are believed to be involved in the pathogenesis of neurodegenerative diseases. SNCG also appears to regulate BUB1B [1702]. While SNCG has been linked to cancer and CNS development [1083], its role, if any, in human ageing is unknown.
