This protein is primarily expressed in neurons especially within the axons. NEFH plays a mechanical role in maintaining the structural stability and caliber of axons. It is a major constituent of the axoskeleton and contributes to the maintenance of neuronal shape. NEFH acts as a scaffold allowing other proteins to assemble onto it forming neurofilament complexes that provide support to neuronal cells.\u003cbr\u003e\nBiological function summary\u003cbr\u003e\nNeurofilament proteins like NEFH contribute to the development and maintenance of neuron shape. NEFH exists as part of a larger neurofilament complex which includes two other major neurofilament subunits: NEFL (neurofilament light) and NEFM (neurofilament medium). Together these protein components form long filaments giving neurons their tensile strength. NEFH is important in dictating the radial growth of axons facilitating efficient nerve conduction.\u003cbr\u003e\nPathways\u003cbr\u003e\nProteins involved in axonal transport and cytoskeletal organization engage with NEFH. In the axonal transport pathway NEFH associates with proteins such as dynein and kinesin necessary for the movement of organelles along the axonal microtubules. Furthermore NEFH's role in the cytoskeletal organization pathway involves interaction with actin and microtubule-associated proteins to ensure proper neuron function and structural integrity.\u003cbr\u003e\nNeurodegenerative conditions such as Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis (ALS) and some forms of Charcot-Marie-Tooth disease link NEFH involvement. Accumulation of NEFH in motor neurons has been observed in ALS indicating disruption in axonal transport. In these diseases alterations in NEFH protein interactions such as with NEFL can lead to disrupted neurofilament integrity and axonal stability contributing to neuronal dysfunction and disease progression.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Abcam","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":46855498825897,"sku":"ab317043","price":0.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"url":"https:\/\/iright.com\/ar\/products\/abcam-ab317043","provider":"Iright","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
