title: Axonal transport through nodes of Ranvier.
abstract: Axonally transported glycoproteins are shown to accumulate at nodes of Ranvier. We hypothesize that the increased labeling in nodal regions results from the rheological effects of axonal constriction as well as from selective deposition of some transported labeled molecules.
