PMP2 - peripheral myelin protein 2 Gene
Also Known as P2; MP2; CMT1G; FABP8; M-FABP
Species: Homo sapiens
About PMP2
This gene has 2 transcripts (splice variants), 453 orthologues, 15 paralogues and is associated with 2 phenotypes. Restricted expression toward brain (RPKM 121.5).
Summary
The protein encoded by this gene localizes to myelin sheaths of the peripheral nervous system. The encoded protein can bind both the membrane layers of the sheaths and monomeric lipids, and is thought to provide stability to the sheath. A defect in this gene was shown to be a cause of dominant demyelinating CMT neuropathy. [provided by RefSeq, Jan 2017]
