The gene plp on the X chromosome encodes the isoforms proteolipid protein (PLP) and DM 20 , two dominant integral membrane proteins of central nervous system (CNS) myelin. DM 20 results from the activation of the cryptic splice site in exon III of the PLP gene. We inserted a sense-orientated loxP fl
