Making Myelin Basic Protein -from mRNA transport to localized translation
In the central nervous system (CNS) of most vertebrates, oligodendrocytes enwrap neuronal axons with extensions of their plasma membrane to form the myelin sheath. Several proteins are characteristically found in myelin of which Myelin Basic Protein (MBP) is the second most abundant one after Proteo...
