Description

General description

The protein encoded by this gene is a type I membrane protein and member of the immunoglobulin superfamily. It is thought to be involved in the process of myelination. It is a lectin that binds to sialylated glycoconjugates and mediates certain myelin-neuron cell-cell interactions. Two alternatively spliced transcripts encoding different isoforms have been described for this gene. (provided by RefSeq)

Application

Monoclonal Anti-MAG antibody produced in mouse is suitable for immunohistochemistry (formalin-fixed, paraffin-embedded sections), indirect ELISA, and western blot applications.

Biochem/physiol Actions

Myelin-associated glycoprotein (MAG) is a glycoprotein with five Ig-like domains belonging to the siglec family of molecules (sialic acid-binding, immunoglobulin-like lectins). It is highly involved in the myelin formation and its maintenance. It is expressed in oligodendrocyte processes at the axoglial junction. It possesses sialic acid binding affinity. Deletion of MAG region leads to Kearns-Sayre syndrome characterized with oligodendrocyte loss and nuclear translocation of apoptosis-inducing factor. MAG also has been reported as an important inhibitor of axonal regeneration.

Physical form

Solution in phosphate buffered saline, pH 7.4
