Extra Details:: Myelin proteolipid protein (PLP1) corresponds to the majority of myelin proteins in the CNS, providing support to axons and modulating the axonal growth (1). DM20 is the result of the alternative splicing of the plp1 gene, which is linked to oligodendrocyte differentiation and survival. The imbalance of PLP1/DM20 is linked to Pelizaeus-Merzbacher disease (2,3), including mitochondrial damage (4). In addition, PLP1, but not DM20, can enter the mitochondria and participate in the metabolism of cells (5). Applications: Suitable for use in Western Blot. Other applications not tested. Recommended Dilution: Western Blot: 1:1000. Optimal dilutions to be determined by the researcher. Storage and Stability: May be stored at 4°C for short-term only.
