Literature information of multiple sclerosis :

Pubmed ID 7683738
Year 1993
Title Genetic susceptibility in familial multiple sclerosis not linked to the myelin basic protein gene

Results of multiple sclerosis :

Expression N/A
Risk type N/A
Result The results of the present investigation of multiplex families in the western United States show that MS and MBP alleles frequently do not co-segregate.
Mechanism/Pathway The results do not demonstrate linkage between the MBP gene region and multiple sclerosis.
