Gene Information

human ... MBP(4155)

General description

Myelin basic protein (MBP) is part of the myelin sheath and is a calcium-dependent protein. It has six isoforms and the gene encoding it is localized on human chromosome 18q23.

Specificity

Recognizes amino acids 36-50 of myelin basic protein.

Immunogen

bovine myelin basic protein.

Biochem/physiol Actions

Myelin basic protein (MBP) associates with calmodulin and has been identified as an auto-antigen in multiple sclerosis (MS). It also inhibits the assembly of amyloid-β protein.

Preparation Note

Generated by somatic cell hybridization of NS0 myeloma cells with spleen cells from an outbred rat immunized with bovine myelin basic protein.

Early loss of white matter microstructure integrity is a significant cause of long-term neurological disorders following traumatic brain injury (TBI). White matter abnormalities typically involve axonal loss and demyelination. In-vivo imaging tools to detect and differentiate such microstructural changes are

The vast majority of cellular proteins are degraded by the 26S proteasome after their ubiquitination. Here, we report that the major component of the myelin multilayered membrane sheath, myelin basic protein (MBP), is hydrolyzed by the 26S proteasome in a

We recently showed that myelin basic protein (MBP) is hydrolyzed by 26S proteasome without ubiquitination. The previously suggested concept of charge-mediated interaction between MBP and the proteasome led us to attempt to compensate or mimic its positive charge to inhibit

Intra-uterine growth restriction (IUGR) is a significant in utero complication that can have profound effects on brain development including reduced myelination and deficits that can continue into adulthood. Progesterone increases oligodendrocyte proliferation and myelin expression, an action that may depend
