Description
Oligodendrocyte myelin glycoprotein (OMG, OMgp) is a glycosylphosphatidylinositol-anchored protein expressed by neurons and oligodendrocytes that influences the development of the adult central nervous system (CNS). OMG inhibits neurite outgrowth through its interaction with the Nogo receptor. This function requires its leucine-rich repeat domain, a highly-conserved region in OMG that influences cell proliferation, formation and maintenance of myelin sheaths. OMG inhibits neurite outgrowth from rat cerebellar granule and hippocampal cells; from dorsal root ganglion explants in which growth cone collapse was observed; from rat retinal ganglion neurons; and from NG108 and PC-12 cells
