High impact information on RPLP0

  • The amino acid sequence of the chicken P0 molecule, deduced from the nucleotide sequence of cDNA clones, is reported here [1].
  • Unexpectedly, an avian P0 cDNA probe was found to hybridise with several mRNA species, present exclusively in peripheral nerve and in proportions that varied according to the developmental stage [1].
  • As the major transbilayer glycoprotein of peripheral myelin, P0 is believed to play a prominent role in the formation of this structure by Schwann cells [1].
  • The HNK-1 carbohydrate epitope was detected in all these and in other bands permitting identification of the 100-kD moiety as the myelin-associated glycoprotein and the 26.5-kD protein as the P0 protein; the myelin-related 21.5/19.5-kD doublet appears as distinct, probable adhesion molecule(s) [2].
 

Analytical, diagnostic and therapeutic context of RPLP0

  • Molecular cloning of cDNAs that encode the chicken P0 protein: evidence for early expression in avians [1].
