Myelin Basic Protein (MBP) a 19.6 kDa highly basic protein is a major constituent of central nervous system (CNS). This protein is synthesized by oligodendrocyte and Schwann cells. MBP, Proteolipid (PLP), myelin oligodendrocyte glycoprotein (MOG) are primary encephaltogenic target antigens in multiple sclerosis. The gene for MBP is on chromosome 18; the protein localizes to CNS and to various cells of the hematopoietic system. MBP is expressed in oligodendrocyte, myelin of white matter, spinal cord and in peripheral nerves. This antibody stains white matter and oligodendrocyte.
