Abstract
Myelin-associated glycoprotein (MAG), a membrane glycoprotein of 100 kDa, is thought to be involved in the process of myelination. A cDNA encoding the amino-terminal half of rat MAG has recently been isolated and sequenced. We have used this cDNA in Southern blot analysis of DNA from 32 somatic cell hybrids to assign the human locus for MAG to chromosome 19 and the mouse locus to chromosome 7. Since the region of mouse chromosome 7-known to contain several other genes that are homologous to genes on human chromosome 19-also carries the quivering (qv) locus, we considered the possibility that a mutation in the MAG gene could be responsible for this neurological disorder. While MAG-specific DNA restriction fragments, mRNA, and protein from qv/qv mice were apparently normal in size and abundance, we have not ruled out the possibility that qv could be caused by a point mutation in the MAG gene.
