## Abstract Myelin basic protein (MBP) was quantified using a RIA technique in the spinal cord, cerebellum, diencephalon plus brainstem region and cerebral hemispheres of two dysmyelinating murine mutants, quaking (qk) and jimpy (jp) mice. Comparison was made with normal control values. The whole l
Transferrin, the iron mobilization protein, and its mRNA are normally present in oligodendrocytes. Previous reports using myelin mutants have shown both a decrease in transferrin protein and mRNA when the oligodendrocyte population is compromised. In this study the shiverer mouse mutant in which the
