Popis: | In the present study, we reveal myelin specific expression and targeting of mRNA and biochemical pools of HspB5 in the mouse CNS. Our observations are based on in-situ hybridisation, electron microscopy and co-localisation with 2’,3’-Cyclin-Nucleotide 3’-Phosphodiesterase (CNPase), reinforcing this myelin selective expression. HspB5 mRNA might be targeted to these structures based on its presence in discrete clusters resembling RNA granules and the presence of a putative RNA transport signal. Further, sub-cellular fractionation of myelin membranes reveals a distinct sub-compartment specific association and detergent solubility of HspB5. This is akin to other abundant myelin proteins and is consistent with HspB5’s association with cytoskeletal/membrane assemblies. Oligodendrocytes have a pivotal role in supporting axonal function via generating and segregating the ensheathing myelin. This specialisation places extreme structural and metabolic demands on this glial cell type. Our observations place HspB5 in oligodendrocytes which may require selective and specific chaperone capabilities to maintain normal function and neuronal support. |
