UniProt Comments for Prx
Scaffolding protein that functions as part of a dystroglycan complex in Schwann cells, and as part of EZR and AHNAK-containing complexes in eye lens fiber cells (PubMed:11430802, PubMed:21745462, PubMed:22764250). Required for the maintenance of the peripheral myelin sheath that is essential for normal transmission of nerve impulses and normal perception of sensory stimuli (PubMed:10839370). Required for normal transport of MBP mRNA from the perinuclear to the paranodal regions (PubMed:15356632). Required for normal remyelination after nerve injury (PubMed:10839370). Required for normal elongation of Schwann cells and normal length of the internodes between the nodes of Ranvier. The demyelinated nodes of Ranvier permit saltatory transmission of nerve impulses; shorter internodes cause slower transmission of nerve impulses (PubMed:15356632, PubMed:23022068). Required for the formation of appositions between the abaxonal surface of the myelin sheath and the Schwann cell plasma membrane; the Schwann cell cytoplasm is restricted to regions between these appositions (PubMed:15356632, PubMed:23022068). Required for the formation of Cajal bands and of Schmidt-Lanterman incisures that correspond to short, cytoplasm-filled regions on myelinated nerves (PubMed:23022068, PubMed:22764250). Recruits DRP2 to the Schwann cell plasma membrane (PubMed:11430802, PubMed:23022068, PubMed:22764250). Required for normal protein composition of the eye lens fiber cell plasma membrane and normal eye lens fiber cell morphology (PubMed:21745462).
