UniProt Summary
FUNCTION: SwissProt: P02686 # The classic group of MBP isoforms (isoform 4-isoform 14) are with PLP the most abundant protein components of the myelin membrane in the CNS. They have a role in both its formation and stabilization. The smaller isoforms might have an important role in remyelination of denuded axons in multiple sclerosis. The non- classic group of MBP isoforms (isoform 1-isoform 3/Golli-MBPs) may preferentially have a role in the early developing brain long before myelination

Entrez Gene Summary
The protein encoded by the classic MBP gene is a major constituent of the myelin sheath of oligodendrocytes and Schwann cells in the nervous system. However, MBP-related transcripts are also present in the bone marrow and the immune system. These mRNAs arise from the long MBP gene (otherwise called "Golli-MBP") that contains 3 additional exons located upstream of the classic MBP exons. Alternative splicing from the Golli and the MBP transcription start sites gives rise to 2 sets of MBP-related t

Description:
Anti-Myelin Basic Protein, a.a. 82-87
Background Information:
The two major components of CNS myelin are Myelin Basic Protein (MBP) and proteolipid protein (PLP), occuring in roughly equimolar proportions. There are many neurological disorders associated with deficiencies of myelin assembly and structure. For example Multiple Sclerosis is a human disease due to multiple factors but generally characterized by the degradation of the myelin sheath. MBP ususally refers to the 18.5 kDa isoform, which is one of the most abundant proteins of the myelin sheath of adult human and bovine CNS. Genetically, MBP is the product of differential splicing of a single mRNA transcript. In humans there are 4 isoforms, 21.5, 20.2, 18.5, and 17.2 kDa. Thus, MBP are present in multiple isoforms, part of a large family of developmentally expressed, translocatable, and highly post-translationally modifed proteins with multiple binding partners. Structurally, MBP displays a predominately unorganized form with greater than 75% in random coil. Other non-CNS related functions of myelin include insulin induction and glucagon release from pancreatic islets.
Alternate Names:
MBP
Clone:
12
Specificity:
Reacts with MBP from all species tested. It reacts weakly with peptides ending in the phe 91 where the 91-92 phe-phe bond is broken. Synthetic peptide 82-99 reacts very well as does intact MBP. Mapped to the region DENPVV.
