Isoprenylated Proteins in Myelin
Journal of Neurochemistry, 1994Abstract: Incubation of rat brainstem slices with [3H]‐ mevalonate ([3H]MVA) in the presence of lovastatin resulted in the incorporation of label into three groups of myelin‐associated proteins with molecular masses of 47, 21–27, and 8 kDa, as revealed on sodium dodecyl sulfate‐ polyacrylamide rod gel electrophoresis.

Myelin‐Deficient Rat: Analysis of Myelin Proteins
Journal of Neurochemistry, 1986Abstract: Myelin basic protein (BP), proteolipid protein (PLP), myelin‐associated glycoprotein (MAG), and 2′,3′‐cyclic nucleotide 3′‐phosphodiesterase (CNPase) activity were quantitated in the brains and spinal cords of normal and myelin‐deficient (md) rats at 8, 12, 18, and 25 days of age.

Evolution of myelin ultrastructure and the major structural myelin proteins
Brain Research, 2016Myelin sheaths, as the specialized tissue wrapping the nerve fibers in the central and peripheral nervous systems (CNS and PNS), are responsible for rapid conduction of electrical signals in these fibers. We compare the nerve myelin sheaths of different phylogenetic origins-including mammal, rodent, bird, reptile, amphibian, lungfish, teleost, and ...

Scandinavian Journal of Immunology, 1982
Our attention was first directed to a study of myelin proteins because of our interest in the induction of experimental allergic encephalomyelitis (EAE) and the fact that Kabat et al. (11) and Morgan (26) had reported that white matter was more encephalitogenic than gray matter.

1977
The protein composition of CNS myelin is relatively simple, with two protein fractions comprising 60–80% of the total membrane protein. These are the highly basic, histonelike protein (a single protein in most animals, two in some species) and the hydrophobic proteolipid protein fraction (predominantly a single protein).

Immune Tolerance to Myelin Proteins
Immunologic Research, 2003Multiple sclerosis (MS) is a demyelinating disorder of the central nervous system. It is believed to be an autoimmune disease arising from a breakdown of immune tolerance in T cells specific for myelin antigens. The heterogeneity in clinical signs and pathology observed in MS patients suggests a complex pathogenesis in which the specificity of the ...

Native myelin proteins and myelin assembly in the central nervous system
1991Myelin is a membrane required for impulse conduction in the nervous system. In line with its unique function, myelin possesses properties which cannot be compared with other biological structures (Raine, 1984).

Proteins and enzymes of myelin [PDF]
, 1977 Current views on the structure of membranes assume that the genetic control over their structure and assembly is asserted via the protein components and that the nature and alignment of lipids depends on the amino acid sequence of the proteins. Demyelination may result from a defective myelin protein or damage to part of the protein framework which ...

From the syndrome of Charcot, Marie and Tooth to disorders of peripheral myelin proteins.
Brain : a journal of neurology, 1995The description of the peroneal muscular atrophy syndrome in 1886 by Charcot, Marie and Tooth was followed by an era of nosological confusion. This was partly clarified by the advent of nerve conduction studies and the definition of the most common, but ...
