The interaction of myelin basic protein with cholesterol and the conformational changes occurring in the protein upon interaction with the lipid were investigated. The myelin basic protein (MBP) plays an important role in stabilizing the multilamellar structure of the myelin membrane. MBP interacts

The interaction of myelin basic protein (MBP) and proteolipid protein (PLP) was studied using a microtitre well binding assay and the ligand-blot overlay technique. The binding of iodinated PLP to MBP that was immobilized on microtitre wells was saturable and reversible. Its selectivity was investig
The structural characteristics of myelin basic protein (MBP) involved in protein-protein and protein-lipid interactions were investigated. Rabbit MBP could bind calmodulin (CaM) in the presence of Ca2+ to form a complex that remained undissociated in 8 M urea. However, no tight complex formation was
## Abstract Bovine basic protein (BP) was digested with purified bovine brain cathepsin D to produce well defined BP derived peptides 1โ42, 43โ88, 43โ169, and 89โ169. BP and these BP peptides were tested for their effects on cultured human dermal fibroblasts using a concentration range of 0.01โ1,00
## Synopsis Myelin basic protein isolated from bovine white matter is known to consist of a mixture of three or more "charge isomers," which can be separated by cation-exchange chromatography. We are using 360-MHz 'H-nmr spectroscopy to establish the chemical and structural differences among them.
The multiple myelin basic protein (MBP) isoforms expressed by myelinating cells are now known to have different expression patterns. The relative abundance of the isoforms containing exon II is greater early in myelinogenesis, whereas in compact myelin the isoforms lacking this exon are more abundan
