Vectors for Western clawed frog mpz

Gene Information

  • Offical Gene Symbol mpz
  • Species Western clawed frog (Xenopus tropicalis)
  • Offical Full Name myelin protein zero
  • Other Aliases MPP
  • Other Desigations myelin protein P0; Myelin peripheral protein
  • Gene Type protein-coding
  • Summary
    This gene is specifically expressed in Schwann cells of the peripheral nervous system and encodes a type I transmembrane glycoprotein that is a major structural protein of the peripheral myelin sheath. The encoded protein contains a large hydrophobic extracellular domain and a smaller basic intracellular domain, which are essential for the formation and stabilization of the multilamellar structure of the compact myelin. Mutations in the orthologous gene in human are associated with myelinating neuropathies. A recent study showed that two isoforms are produced from the same mRNA by use of alternative in-frame translation termination codons via a stop codon readthrough mechanism. Alternatively spliced transcript variants have also been found for this gene. [provided by RefSeq, Dec 2017]
