MPZ Antibody – Rabbit Polyclonal

myelin P0: a structural protein in peripheral nervous system Schwann cells. Forms an extracellular membrane face which guides the wrapping process and ultimately compacts adjacent lamellae. Defects cause of Charcot-Marie-Tooth disease, Dejerine-Sottas syndrome, congenital hypomyelination neuropathy, and Roussy-Levy syndrome.
