It is approximately 190 kDa in size. Caspr is expressed mainly in neurons specifically at the paranodal regions of myelinated axons. This location is important for nerve impulse propagation demonstrating its structural and functional roles in the nervous system.\u003cbr\u003e\nBiological function summary\u003cbr\u003e\nCaspr interacts with other proteins at the paranodes forming a complex with contactin and Neurofascin 155. This complex contributes to the insulation and maintenance of the nerve's myelin sheath. By ensuring proper node of Ranvier organization Caspr supports efficient saltatory conduction. The protein's interaction within these complexes allows axons to transmit signals rapidly and accurately.\u003cbr\u003e\nPathways\u003cbr\u003e\nCaspr plays an important role in the maintenance of nervous system architecture and function. It is integral to the axoglial junctions and participates in the clustering and distribution of ion channels which are essential components of the nervous system. Caspr regulates these processes by interacting with proteins such as contactin and Neurofascin facilitating the communication and signaling pathways necessary for nervous system homeostasis.\u003cbr\u003e\nCaspr dysfunction is linked to conditions such as multiple sclerosis and hereditary neuropathies. Abnormalities in Caspr or its associated complexes can lead to myelination defects and impaired nerve transmission. The protein's involvement in these diseases often relates to its association with contactin and other neuronal proteins highlighting its significance not only in healthy nervous system function but also in pathologies that affect nerve conduction.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Abcam","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":46850352513193,"sku":"ab246501","price":0.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"url":"https:\/\/iright.com\/products\/abcam-ab246501","provider":"Iright","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
