Research Background
Caspr (contactin-associated protein) is a part of the neurexin family. It lies in the paranodal section of the myelin sheath. It’s role is for myelin sheath attachment along with contactin in a cis-complex (3). Caspr and Caspr2 regulate the formation of distinct axonal domains around the nodes of Ranvier. Caspr is required for the generation of a membrane barrier at the paranodal junction, whereas Caspr serves as a membrane scaffold that clusters Kv1 channels at the juxtaparanodal region. Both interact with protein 4.1B (4).
