peripheral nerve myelin we investigated mice deficient in the myelin proteins P0 and MBP.
In mice lacking both molecules axons were enwrapped by myelin-like processes devoid of
the major dense line, while mice deficient in either protein showed, respectively, partial and
normal compaction. Mice heterozygous for P0 but devoid of MBP showed myelin of reduced
thickness around axons of normal caliber. Both molecules thus contribute to the formation of …
