Unique ID: D018992
RDF Unique Identifier: http://id.nlm.nih.gov/mesh/D018992
Annotation: do not confuse with MYELIN-OLIGODENDROCYTE GLYCOPROTEIN or OLIGODENDROCYTE-MYELIN GLYCOPROTEIN
Scope Note: A myelin protein found in the periaxonal membrane of both the central and peripheral nervous systems myelin sheaths. It binds to cells surface receptors found on AXONS and may regulate cellular interactions between MYELIN and AXONS.
