A critical role for the cholesterol-associated proteolipids PLP and M6B in myelination of the central nervous systemHauke B Werner
Department of Neurogenetics, Max Planck Institute of Experimental Medicine, Goettingen, Germany
Glia 61:567-86. 2013..However, M6B is not efficiently sorted into mature myelin, in which it is 200-fold less abundant than PLP. Thus, only PLP contributes to the high cholesterol content of myelin by association and co-transport...
Proteolipid protein is required for transport of sirtuin 2 into CNS myelinHauke B Werner
Department of Neurogenetics, Max Planck Institute of Experimental Medicine, D 37075 Goettingen, Germany
J Neurosci 27:7717-30. 2007..Because normal SIRT2 activity is controlled by the NAD+/NADH ratio, its function may be coupled to the axo-glial metabolism and the long-term support of axons by oligodendrocytes...
The SNARE protein SNAP-29 interacts with the GTPase Rab3A: Implications for membrane trafficking in myelinating gliaAnke Schardt
Department of Neurogenetics, Max Planck Institute of Experimental Medicine, Gottingen, Germany
J Neurosci Res 87:3465-79. 2009..We suggest that Rab3A may regulate SNAP-29-mediated membrane fusion during myelination...
Phylogeny of proteolipid proteins: divergence, constraints, and the evolution of novel functions in myelination and neuroprotectionWiebke Mobius
Department of Neurogenetics, Max Planck Institute of Experimental Medicine, Gottingen, Germany
Neuron Glia Biol 4:111-27. 2008..We suggest that the molecular shift from P0 to PLP also correlates with the concentration of adhesive forces at the radial component, and that the new balance between membrane adhesion and dynamics was favorable for CNS myelination...
Systematic approaches to central nervous system myelinPatricia de Monasterio-Schrader
Department of Neurogenetics, Max Planck Institute of Experimental Medicine, Hermann Rein Str 3, 37075, Gottingen, Germany
Cell Mol Life Sci 69:2879-94. 2012..Systematic approaches to oligodendrocytes and myelin thus provide valuable resources for the molecular dissection of developmental myelination, glia-axonal interactions, leukodystrophies, and demyelinating diseases...
Myelin proteomics: molecular anatomy of an insulating sheathOlaf Jahn
Proteomics Group, Max Planck Institute of Experimental Medicine, Goettingen, Germany
Mol Neurobiol 40:55-72. 2009....
Phosphatidylinositol 4,5-bisphosphate-dependent interaction of myelin basic protein with the plasma membrane in oligodendroglial cells and its rapid perturbation by elevated calciumSchanila Nawaz
Max Planck Institute of Experimental Medicine, University of Gottingen, D 37075 Gottingen, Germany
J Neurosci 29:4794-807. 2009..Together, these results establish that PIP2 is an essential determinant for stable membrane binding of MBP and provide a novel link between glial phosphoinositol metabolism and MBP function in development and disease...
Axonal loss and neuroinflammation caused by peroxisome-deficient oligodendrocytesCelia M Kassmann
Department of Neurogenetics, Max Planck Institute of Experimental Medicine, Hermann Rein Strasse 3, D 37075 Gottingen, Germany
Nat Genet 39:969-76. 2007..We conclude that peroxisomes provide oligodendrocytes with an essential neuroprotective function against axon degeneration and neuroinflammation, which is relevant for human demyelinating diseases...
