Glycoprotein
Glycoproteins are proteins that contain oligosaccharide chains covalently attached to polypeptide side-chains. The carbohydrate is attached to the protein in a cotranslational or posttranslational modification. This process is known as glycosylation. In proteins that have segments extending...

Interactions
Myelin protein zero has been shown to interactProtein-protein interaction
Protein–protein interactions occur when two or more proteins bind together, often to carry out their biological function. Many of the most important molecular processes in the cell such as DNA replication are carried out by large molecular machines that are built from a large number of protein...

Peripheral myelin protein 22
Peripheral myelin protein 22, also known as PMP22, is a protein which in humans is encoded by the PMP22 gene. Alternative splicing of this gene results in three transcript variants that encode the same protein.- Function :...
