Validated All-in-One™ qPCR Primer for MAG(NM_002361.3) Search again
By default, qPCR primer pairs are designed to measure the expression level of the splice variant (accession number) you selected for this gene WITHOUT consideration of other possible variants of this gene. If this gene has multiple variants, and you would like to measure the expression levels of one particular variant, multiple variants, or all variants, please contact us for a custom service project at inquiry@genecopoeia.com.

Summary
The protein encoded by this gene is a type I membrane protein and member of the immunoglobulin superfamily. It is thought to be involved in the process of myelination. It is a lectin that binds to sialylated glycoconjugates and mediates certain myelin-neuron cell-cell interactions. Two alternatively spliced transcripts encoding different isoforms have been described for this gene. [provided by RefSeq].
Gene References into function
- Myelin destruction with preferential loss of MAG is found in autopsy brains with acute white matter ischemia as well as in HSV- and CMV-encephalitis.
- Possible association of MAG and schizophrenia in a Chinese Han cohort of family trios
- Our findings of a significant associations between schizophrenia and the MAG gene suggest that this gene may be involved in susceptibility to schizophrenia in the Chinese Han population.
- Expression of MAG, CNP and OLIG2 did not differ between patients with schizophrenia and controls in the grey or white matter
- These results support the hypothesis that the adhesive interactions between MUC1 and MAG are of biological significance in pancreatic cancer perineural invasion.
- Twenty of 46 patients with IgM amyloidosis (7 with and 13 without polyneuropathy) had elevation of anti-MAG or SGPG by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay
- This finding provides support for potential association of the CNP gene but not the MAG gene in schizophrenia in a Caucasian population.
- In our patient, propriospinal myoclonus was associated with anti-MAG polyneuropathy, but the causal relationship remains unclear.
- RNF10 is a trans-acting protein regulating MAG expression and is required for myelin formation.
