Abstract

A membrane skeletal molecular complex, protein 4.1G-membrane palmitoylated protein 6 (MPP6)-Lin7-cell adhesion molecule 4 (CADM4), is incorporated in Schwann cells, especially in Schmidt-Lanterman incisures (SLIs), in the mouse peripheral nervous system (PNS). MPP6, Lin7, and CADM4 are transported to SLIs by 4.1G. In this study, we created MPP6-deficient mice and evaluated myelin structure and MPP6 protein complexes. In SLIs in MPP6-deficient nerves, Lin7 was rarely detected by immunohistochemistry and western blotting, but the localization and amount of CADM4 and 4.1G were not altered. Motor activity was not significantly impaired in a tail-suspension test, but the sciatic nerves of MPP6-deficient mice had thicker myelin in internodes by electron microscopy compared to that of wild-type mice. These results indicate that the MPP6-Lin7 complex regulates myelin formation.
