Gene information for MOG (Homo sapiens)
(Information is obtained from NCBI Gene database)
Entrez gene ID4340
Official gene symbolMOG
Full namemyelin oligodendrocyte glycoprotein
Aliases,MGC26137,MOGIG2,
Gene summaryThe product of this gene is a membrane protein expressed on the oligodendrocyte cell surface and the outermost surface of myelin sheaths. Due to this localization, it is a primary target antigen involved in immune-mediated demyelination. This protein may be involved in completion and maintenance of the myelin sheath and in cell-cell communication. Alternatively spliced transcript variants encoding different isoforms have been identified. [provided by RefSeq]
