The molecular genetics of myelination: an update.

Glia - 1 Apr 1993

Lemke G

Abstract excerpt

Recent molecular genetic studies have provided new insights into the structure and function of 2 of the major integral membrane proteins of myelin--the proteolipid protein (PLP) and protein zero (P0)--and have uncovered a third such protein--PMP22/gas3. The rumpshaker mouse has been shown to carry a point mutation in the PLP gene that uncouples a deleterious effect on CNS myelin assembly, which these mice...
