Synphilin-1 is a cytosolic protein first identified in 1999 as a novel binding partner of α-synuclein, localized within Lewy bodies in Parkinson's disease brain tissue. Experimental studies in mammalian cells and yeast demonstrated that co-expression of synphilin-1 with α-synuclein promotes the formation of cytoplasmic inclusions resembling Lewy bodies.
