Flexible Players within the Sheaths: The Intrinsically Disordered Proteins of Myelin in Health and Disease
2020-01-31
Abstract excerpt
Myelin ensheathes selected axonal segments within the nervous system, resulting primarily in nerve impulse acceleration, as well as mechanical and trophic support for neurons. In the central and peripheral nervous systems, various proteins that contribute to the formation and stability of myelin are present, which also harbour pathophysiological roles in myelin disease. Many myelin proteins share common attributes...
