    AnnotationIn this work, we describe the preparation and characterization of low molecular weight covalently bound oligomeric species of alpha-synuclein (aS) obtained by crosslinking via tyrosyl radicals. Numerous analytical techniques were used to characterize the aS oligomers. The diverse oligomeric species exhibited a direct effect on the in vitro aggregation behavior of wild-type monomeric aS.Compared to the unmodified monomer, the photoinduced covalent oligomeric species demonstrated increased toxic effects on differentiated neuronal-like SH-SY5Y cells. The results highlight the importance of protein modification induced by oxidative stress in the initial molecular events leading to Parkinson’s disease.
