Abstract:Recent evidence indicates that central nervous system (CNS) myelin is a considerably more complex and dynamic structure than previously supposed. During the past decade much information has been gained about the four proteins considered to be 'myelinspecific'myelin basic proteins (MBP), proteolipid protein (PLP), 2',3'-cyclic nucleotide-3'-phosphohydrolase(CNPase).andmyelinassociated giycoprotein (MAG). For each of these proteins cDNAs have been isolated from several species and sequenced[ 1.2.31 and the struc… Show more
