Description
Involved in myelination. Predicted to localize to integral component of membrane and plasma membrane. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in Pelizaeus-Merzbacher disease and hereditary spastic paraplegia 2. Is expressed in central nervous system; glial cell; and neural tube. Orthologous to human PLP1 (proteolipid protein 1).
