Tuning of Ranvier node and internode properties in myelinated axons to adjust action potential timing

Action potential timing is fundamental to information processing; however, its determinants are not fully understood. Here we report unexpected structural specializations in the Ranvier nodes and internodes of auditory brainstem axons involved in sound localization. Myelination properties deviated s...
