Although previous studies suggest that Po is expressed only in myelinating Schwann cells, monoclonal antibody 1E8 reacts with Po, yet also stains early Schwann cell precursors and non-myelinating Schwann cells (Bhattacharyya et al.: Neuron 7: 831-844, 1991). We therefore characterized the 1E8 epitope and analyzed Po mRNA expression during development. Immunoblot analyses of Po fusion proteins and of deglycosylated Po indicated that the 1E8 epitope is polypeptide. Northern blot and polymerase chain reaction (PCR) analyses revealed that Po is encoded by a single mRNA that is expressed in chicken embryos as early as E4 and in rat embryos as early as E14. These data indicate that the antigen recognized by 1E8 in early chicken embryos is Po and that, during development of both chickens and rats, Po mRNA is expressed long before myelination. 0 1995 Wiley-Liss, Inc.
