Background

Myelin oligodendrocyte glycoprotein (MOG) is found on the surface of myelinating oligodendrocytes and external lamellae of myelin sheaths in the central nervous system. MOG is a minor component of the myelin sheath and is implicated in completion and maintenance of the myelin sheath and in cell-cell communication. MOG is found exclusively in the CNS, where it is localized on the surface of myelin and oligodendrocyte cytoplasmic membranes; peak expression has been observed between postnatal days 15 and 25, coincident with the period of active myelination.
