A part of an axon, a cell projection of a neuron. The long process of a neuron that conducts nerve impulses, usually away from the cell body to the terminals and varicosities, which are sites of storage and release of neurotransmitter. An axon part that is located between the nodes of Ranvier and surrounded by compact myelin sheath. The main axonal trunk, as opposed to the collaterals. Any constituent part of a cell projection, a prolongation or process extending from a cell, e.g. a flagellum or axon.
