additional information | nardilysin null mice have smaller brains and a thin cerebral cortex, in which are less myelinated fibers with thinner myelin sheaths and smaller axon diameters, compared to wild-type mice. The mutants show hypomyelination in the peripheral nervous system, phenotype, overview. Neuron-specific overexpression of nardilysin induces hypermyelination | Mus musculus |

physiological function | nardilysin is essential for regulation of axonal maturation and myelination in the central and peripheral nervous system. Nardilysin is a metalloendopeptidase enhancer of protein ectodomain shedding, is a critical regulator of these processes for establishing an efficient neuronal signaling network. The level of neuronal enzyme regulates myelin thickness | Mus musculus |
