Necl-4/SynCAM-4 is expressed in myelinating oligodendrocytes but not required for axonal myelination.

Necl-4/SynCAM-4 is expressed in myelinating oligodendrocytes but not required for axonal myelination.

The timing and progression of axonal myelination are precisely controlled by intercellular interactions between neurons and glia in development. Previous in vitro studies demonstrated that Nectin like 4 (Necl-4, also known as cell adhesion molecule Cadm-4 or SynCAM-4) plays an essential role in axon...
