Target Details for MOG

Target: MOG (Myelin Oligodendrocyte Glycoprotein (MOG))

Alternative Name: MOG

Background:

Synonyms: Myelin-oligodendrocyte glycoprotein, MOG

Tissue Specificity: Found exclusively in the CNS, where it is localized on the surface of myelin and oligodendrocyte cytoplasmic membranes.

Background: Myelin oligodendrocyte glycoprotein (MOG) is a glycoprotein believed to be important in the myelination of nerves in the central nervous system (CNS). In humans this protein is encoded by the MOG gene. This gene is mapped to 6p22.1. It is speculated to serve as a necessary "adhesion molecule" to provide structural integrity to the myelin sheath and is known to develop late on the oligodendrocyte. The 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.
