Background
Human Myelin Protein Zero (Pz0) is a 28,400 dalton protein (258 amino acids) found in myelin of the PNS, but not the CNS. Expressed in myelinating Schwann cells, Po serves as a homophilic adhesion molecule, allowing adjacent laminae of the myelin sheath to undergo compaction. Po is also a marker of a subpopulation of migrating neural crest cells. Mutations of the MPZ gene product in humans is responsible for Charcot-Marie-Tooth type 1B neuropathies (HMSN1B) .
Description
Two antipeptide antibodies were generated in chickens against sequences shared between the mouse (NP_032649) and human (NP_000521) gene products. Antibodies were affinity-purified and mixed in equal concentrations. These antibodies have been validated with human, mouse and rat tissues.
Synonyms
Myelin protein P0, Myelin peripheral protein, MPP, Myelin protein zero

Assay Protocol
Chickens were immunized with two synthetic peptide / keyhole limpet hemocyanin (KLH) conjugates. These synthetic peptides corresponded to different regions of the Po gene product, but are shared between the human (NP_000521, NCBI) and mouse (NP_032649, NCBI) sequences. After repeated injections, immune eggs were collected, and the IgY fractions were purified from the yolks. These IgY fractions were then affinity purified using a peptide column, and the concentrations of the eluates adjusted to 200 µg/mL. Finally, equal volumes of both of these affinity-purified anti-peptide antibodies were mixed, and the preparation was filter-sterilized.

ICC Dilution
1:2000-1:5000
Quality Control
Both of these anti-peptide antibodies were analyzed by immunohisto-chemistry (at a dilution of 1:2000) using fluorescein-labeled goat anti-chicken IgY (1:500 dilution, Aves Labs Cat.# F-1005) as the secondary reagent.
