International audience. S129-phosphorylated alpha-synuclein (α-syn) is abundantly found in Lewy-bodyinclusions of Parkinson’s disease patients. Residues neighboring S129 also include the α-syntyrosine phosphorylation sites Y125, Y133 and Y136. Here, we use time-resolved NMRspectroscopy to delineate atomic resolution insights into the modification behaviors ofdifferent serine and tyrosine kinases targeting these sites and show that Y125 phosphorylationconstitutes a necessary priming event for the efficient modification of S129 by Casein kinaseI, both in reconstituted kinase reactions and mammalian cell lysates. These results suggestthat α-syn Y125 phosphorylation augments S129 modification under physiological in vivoconditions.
