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
The myelin basic protein (MBP) gene contains sequences located upstream of its transcription start site which play a key role in glial-specific transcription of the MBP promoter. Earlier analysis of the \(320 \mathrm{bp}\) upstream regulatory sequence of MBP has revealed multiple cis-acting regulato
The human brain contains four isoforms of myelin basic protein (MBP), previously identified by cDNA cloning. We have now isolated and characterized genomic clones encoding the human MBP gene. The gene is 45 kb in extent and consists of seven exons. Alternative splicing of the primary MBP transcript
