Abstract
Open-access reader
Myelin from two neurological mutants in mice was isolated from sciatic nerves and its protein composition analysed. In Quaking mice, two intrinsic myelin proteins P1 and P2 were drastically decreased, whereas the major myelin protein P0 was unaffected. A normal protein composition was found in sciatic myelin from Jimpy mice.
