Proteína Básica de Mielina (87-99) (humano, bovino, rata)

Descripción:

La proteína básica de mielina (MBP) es un componente crucial de la vaina de mielina que aísla las fibras nerviosas en el sistema nervioso central. El fragmento específico denominado 'Proteína básica de mielina (87-99)' corresponde a una secuencia de péptidos derivada de la proteína de longitud completa, que desempeña un papel significativo en la formación y mantenimiento de la mielina. Esta proteína se caracteriza por su alta basicidad, debido a la presencia de numerosos aminoácidos cargados positivamente, lo que facilita su interacción con lípidos cargados negativamente en la membrana de mielina. La MBP es esencial para el correcto funcionamiento de los oligodendrocitos, las células responsables de la mielinización en el sistema nervioso central. También está involucrada en varios procesos celulares, incluyendo la señalización y la organización del citoesqueleto. El número CAS 118506-26-6 identifica este péptido específico, que puede derivarse de varias especies, incluidos humanos, bovinos y ratas, reflejando su conservación evolutiva e importancia en diferentes organismos. La investigación sobre la MBP es significativa para entender las enfermedades desmielinizantes, como la esclerosis múltiple, donde el sistema inmunológico ataca erróneamente la mielina.

Myelin Basic Protein (87-99)

CAS: 118506-26-6

The myelin sheath which is located in both the Central Nervous System (CNS) and the Peripheral Nervous System is crucial for neural insulation and the salutatory conduction of nerve impulses. When this myelin sheath is destroyed neurodegeneration and conduction failure occur. This can be observed in demyelinating diseases in the CNS such as: acute disseminated encephalomyelitis and multiple sclerosis and within the PNS: Guillain–Barré syndrome and Charcot–Marie–Tooth disease.
Myelin Basic Protein (MBP) from which this product is derived is the second most abundant protein in myelin. It has been found to be an intrinsically disordered protein and depending on the environmental conditions it can change its conformation. It also folds into ⍺-helical structures which allow MBP to bind tightly to lipid bilayer surfaces. MBP also interacts with other proteins, namely cytoskeletal proteins and calmodulin and may be involved in signalling pathways.
Although more research needs to be carried out, it is thought that MBP significantly contributes to the pathogenesis of multiple sclerosis. As MBP is an autoantigen it can be recognized and cleaved by autoantibodies and is a substrate for the immunoproteasome. Additional research has found that post-translational modifications of MBP such as the removal of arginine are increased in and may be involved in the pathogenesis of multiple sclerosis. Therefore this protein derived from MBP can be used to mimic Neurodegenerative disease phenotypes in research and animal models.

Myelin Basic Protein (87-99) (human, bovine, rat)

CAS: 118506-26-6

This MBP fragment has been shown to induce the proliferation of an encephalitogenic, myelin basic protein-specific T cell line. Active immunization of rats with this peptide induced acute experimental autoimmune encephalomyelitis. This protein region is highly conserved among mammalian species.
