Myelin-associated glycoprotein (MAG) is a transmembrane proteins that is a component of myelin in the central and peripheral nervous system.1 It promotes neurite outgrowth during the embryonic development, but inhibits axonal regeneration in the adult nervous system.2 MAG mediates cell-cell interactions between myelinating glial cells and neurons.3 MAG as an important component of the myelin-derived inhibition of nerve regeneration. The acute loss of MAG function can promote significant axon growth across a site of CNS nerve damage.4
