Abstract excerpt
Myelin P2 is a basic protein of an apparent molecular weight of 14,800. Expression of P2 has been found largely in the cytosol of Schwann cells in the peripheral nervous system. Although the function of P2 is unknown, its striking homology to a family of fatty acid binding proteins has led to the idea that P2 may function as a fatty acid transport molecule. To investigate the DNA elements that control the...
