Background
The myelin sheath is a multi-layered membrane composed of several proteins like PLP, claudin 11 and myelin basic protein (MBP) which is specific for the nervous system. MBP functions as an insulator and increases the velocity of axonal impulse conduction.
MBP can be subdivided into the classic group consisting of isoforms 4 to 14 and the non-classic group of MBP comprising the Golli MBPs (isoforms 1 to 3). Differential splicing events and optional posttranslational modifications give rise to a wide spectrum of isomers with potentially specialized functions.
