Myelin Basic Protein from guinea pig brain, >=80% (SDS-PAGE), lyophilized powder, from guinea pig br

Application

Myelin Basic Protein from guinea pig brain has been used as a component in emulsion to induce experimental autoimmune encephalitis (EAE).

Biochem/physiol Actions

Myelin basic protein (MBP) plays a vital role in formation of myelin sheath and is associated with the various neurological disorders. MBP function as an antigenic target in autoimmune disease experimental allergic encephalomyelitis (EAE). MBP plays an essential role in cytoskeletal turnover and membrane extension. Additionally, it is also involved in Fyn-mediated signaling pathways, sequestration of phosphoinositides and regulation of calcium homoeostasis. MBP functions as an in vitro substrate for mitogen-activated protein kinase (MAP) kinase and aids in the purification and functional studies of enzyme.

Mutation of the myelin basic protein gene induces dysmyelination; used to induce experimental allergic encephalomyelitis.
