Omg Gene Summary [Mouse]
Enables identical protein binding activity. Acts upstream of or within neuron projection regeneration and regulation of collateral sprouting of intact axon in response to injury. Predicted to be located in myelin sheath and plasma membrane. Is expressed in brain and spinal cord. Orthologous to human OMG (oligodendrocyte myelin glycoprotein).

Protein Domains
A protein domain is a distinct structural or functional region within a protein that can evolve, function, and exist independently of the rest of the protein chain. These domains in mouse Omg often fold into stable, three-dimensional structures and are associated with specific biological functions, such as binding to DNA, other proteins, or small molecules.
