Molecular genetic studies have shown that the peripheral myelin protein 22 (PMP22) is a key gene in hereditary peripheral neuropathies and appears to be essential for the formation and maintenance of myelin in the PNS. Based on the amino acid sequence the predicted structure of PMP22 protein contain

Peripheral myelin protein 22 (PMP22) is a small, hydrophobic glycoprotein, which is most prominently expressed by Schwann cells as a component of compact myelin of the peripheral nervous system (PNS).

The peripheral myelin protein PMP22 gene has been described as a growth arrest-specific gene gas3 and has been identified as disease gene of various demyelinating neuropathies. The gene consists of two highly conserved alternative noncoding 5'-exons la (CD25) and 1b (SR13), respectively. Differentia

Peripheral myelin protein 22 (PMP22) is a component of compact myelin of the peripheral nervous system (PNS). Mutations affecting PMP22 are associated with hereditary neuropathies in humans and rodents. Although mammalian PMP22 is expressed in several tissues, the disease pathology is restricted to
