QuickView for MAG;jsessionid=96F0662CAA6F6637C4A32FF7D84E8831 (gene)


Gene Symbol:
MAG Homo sapiens Homo sapiens
Full name:
myelin associated glycoprotein
Synonyms:
GMA, S-MAG, SIGLEC-4A, SIGLEC4A, SPG75, myelin-associated glycoprotein, sialic acid binding Ig-like lectin 4A, sialic acid-binding immunoglobulin-like lectin 4A
Genomic Location:
Chr 19: 40474878-40496547
Description:
The protein encoded by this gene is a type I membrane protein and member of the immunoglobulin superfamily. It is thought to be involved in the process of myelination. It is a lectin that binds to sialylated glycoconjugates and mediates certain myelin-neuron cell-cell interactions. Three alternatively spliced transcripts encoding different isoforms...
