contactin-associated protein 1; Caspr1; Caspr; neurexin 4; neurexin IV; p190 (CNTNAP1 CASPR NRXN4)
Function:
- seems to play a role in the formation of functional distinct domains critical for saltatory conduction of nerve impulses in myelinated nerve fibers
- seems to demarcate paranodal region of axo-glial junction
- in association with contactin may have a role in signaling between axons & myelinating glial cells
- interacts with contactin in cis form
Structure:
- belongs to the neurexin family
- contains 2 EGF-like domains
- contains 1 F5/8 type C domain
- contains 1 fibrinogen C-terminal domain
- contains 4 laminin G-like domains
Compartment: membrane
Expression:
- predominantly expressed in brain
- weak expression detected in ovary, pancreas, colon, lung, heart, intestine & testis
