Human Gene Set: GOCC_MYELIN_SHEATH

For the Mouse gene set with the same name, see GOCC_MYELIN_SHEATH

Standard name GOCC_MYELIN_SHEATH
Systematic name M17315
Brief description An electrically insulating fatty layer that surrounds the axons of many neurons. It is an outgrowth of glial cells: Schwann cells supply the myelin for peripheral neurons while oligodendrocytes supply it to those of the central nervous system. [GOC:cjm, GOC:jl, NIF_Subcellular:sao593830697, Wikipedia:Myelin]
