Studies on myelin-basic-protein methylation during mouse brain development.
The synthesis and methylation in vivo of myelin basic protein (MBP) during the mouse brain development has been investigated. When mice ranging in age from 13 to 60 days were injected intracerebrally with L-[methyl-3H]methionine, the incorporation of radioactivity into MBP isolated from youngest brain was found to be the highest and declined progressively in mature brains. This pattern of radio...
متن کاملStudies on NG-methylarginine derivatives in myelin basic protein from developing and mutant mouse brain.
The amounts of NG-methylarginine derivatives in myelin basic protein (MBP) purified from dysmyelinating mutant and different stages of normal myelinating mouse brains have been studied by using h.p.l.c. with a highly sensitive post-column o-phthaldialdehyde derivative-formation method. All three naturally occurring derivatives (NG-monomethylarginine (MeArg), NGN'G-dimethylarginine [Me2(sym)Arg]...
متن کاملEnzymic methylation of myelin basic protein in myelin.
Myelin fractions with different degrees of compaction were isolated from bovine brain, and post-translational methylation of membrane-associated proteins was studied. When the purified myelin-basic-protein-specific protein methylase I and S-adenosyl-L-[methyl-14C]methionine were added exogenously, the most compact myelin fraction exhibited higher methyl-accepting activity than the less compact ...
متن کاملImmunocytochemical localization studies of myelin basic protein
The location of myelin encephalitogenic or basic protein (BP) in peripheral nervous system (PNS) and central nervous system (CNS) was investigated by immunofluorescence and horseradish peroxidase (HRP) immunocytochemistry. BP or cross-reacting material could be clearly localized to myelin by immunofluorescence and light microscope HRP immunocytochemistry. Fine structural studies proved to be mu...
متن کاملA developmentally regulated DNA-binding protein from mouse brain stimulates myelin basic protein gene expression.
Transcription of the myelin basic protein (MBP) gene is regulated in a cell-type-specific and developmental stage-specific manner during myelin formation in the murine central nervous system. The 5'-flanking region of the MBP gene contains several regulatory elements that differentially contribute to the cell-type-specific transcription of MBP in cells derived from the central nervous system. T...
