title: Isolation and sequence determination of cDNA encoding PMP-22 (PAS-II/SR13/Gas-3) of human peripheral myelin.
abstract: A full length cDNA of PMP-22 (PAS-II/SR13/Gas-3) of peripheral myelin has been isolated from a cDNA library of human fetus spinal cord. The clone is 1823 base pairs (bp) in length and contains a 480 bp open reading frame encoding a polypeptide of 160 residues. The deduced amino acid sequence is highly homologous to PMP-22 from bovine (PAS-II), rat (SR13) and mouse (Gas-3).
