MeSH definition : A protein that accounts for more than half of the peripheral nervous system myelin
protein. The extracellular domain of this protein is believed to engage in adhesive
interactions and thus hold the myelin membrane compact. It can behave as a homophilic
adhesion molecule through interactions with its extracellular domains. (From J Cell
Biol 1994;126(4):1089-97);
