Gene Information
human ... PLP1(5354)
General description
Proteolipid protein 1 (PLP1) gene encodes for two major proteins of the central nervous system (CNS) myelin, such as proteolipid protein (PLP) and DM20. This gene is located on the human chromosome at Xq22.2.
Immunogen
Myelin proteolipid protein recombinant protein epitope signature tag (PrEST)
Biochem/physiol Actions
Proteolipid protein (PLP) is involved in membrane adhesion, compaction of myelin and synthesis of myelin intra-period line. It is also involved in the maturation of oligodendrocytes. PLP plays a role in wrapping, maintenance and survival of axons. Mutations in the proteolipid protein 1 (PLP1) gene is associated with Pelizaeus-Merzbacher disease indicated by nystagmus, spasticity, microcephaly, ataxia and intellectual disability. PLP1 gene plays a role in Xq22.2 microdeletion and microduplication syndromes. Duplication of this gene results in the overexpression of PLP, which leads to accumulation in the cytoplasm myelinating oligodendrocytes and defects in myelin.
Features and Benefits
Prestige Antibodies® are highly characterized and extensively validated antibodies with the added benefit of all available characterization data for each target being accessible via the Human Protein Atlas portal linked just below the product name at the top of this page. The uniqueness and low cross-reactivity of the Prestige Antibodies® to other proteins are due to a thorough selection of antigen regions, affinity purification, and stringent selection. Prestige antigen controls are available for every corresponding Prestige Antibody and can be found in the linkage section.
Every Prestige Antibody is tested in the following ways:
Every Prestige Antibody is tested in the following ways:
- IHC tissue array of 44 normal human tissues and 20 of the most common cancer type tissues.
- Protein array of 364 human recombinant protein fragments.
