Amino Acid Sequence

Met-Glu-Val-Gly-Trp-Tyr-Arg-Ser-Pro-Phe-Ser-Arg-Val-Val-His-Leu-Tyr-Arg-Asn-Gly-Lys

Biochem/physiol Actions

Induces experimental autoimmune encephalomyelitis in rodents; a single injection of this peptide produces a relapsing-remitting neurologic disease with extensive plaque-like demyelination; immunization with MOG (35-55) suppresses spontaneous regeneration of dopaminergic neurons injured with MPTP.

General description

Myelin oligodendrocyte glycoprotein (MOG) is a component of the central nervous system and present on the surface of oligodendrocytes and myelin. Its extracellular domain is widely used to generate an autoimmune animal model of multiple sclerosis. In rats, it is expressed in the hippocampus.
