About Plp1

Summary

Predicted to enable identical protein binding activity. Predicted to be a structural constituent of myelin sheath. Involved in positive regulation of gene expression. Acts upstream of or within several processes, including cell maturation; long-chain fatty acid biosynthetic process; and neurogenesis. Located in myelin sheath. Is expressed in several structures, including alimentary system; cardiovascular system; musculature; nervous system; and sensory organ. Used to study Pelizaeus-Merzbacher disease and hereditary spastic paraplegia 2. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in Pelizaeus-Merzbacher disease and hereditary spastic paraplegia 2. Orthologous to human PLP1 (proteolipid protein 1). [provided by Alliance of Genome Resources, Apr 2022]
