Background: CNP or CNPase (2',3'-Cyclic Nucleotide 3'-Phosphodiesterase) exists in two forms: 46kDa (CNP1) and 48kDa (CNP2). It is expressed at high levels by oligodendrocytes in the central nervous system and by Schwann cells in the peripheral nervous system and is virtual absent in other cell types. CNPase activity is decreased in demyelinating diseases such as multiple sclerosis. CNPase gene is localized to chromosome 17q21, very near the BRCA 1 familial breast cancer gene.
