It plays a significant role in the formation of the neuronal cytoskeleton providing structural support to axons. Alpha Internexin is expressed mainly in the central nervous system and is found in neurons throughout the brain and spinal cord. Despite sharing functions with other intermediate filament proteins like NF-L alpha Internexin is unique in its distribution and timing of expression during neural development.\u003cbr\u003e\nBiological function summary\u003cbr\u003e\nAlpha Internexin contributes to the composition of the neurofilament complex which includes proteins like NF-M NF-L and NF-H. This complex stabilizes neuronal architecture and ensures the integrity of the axonal structure. Presence of alpha Internexin is important for maintaining the dynamic processes of axonal transport and neuron stability. It acts as a scaffolding that supports cellular transport mechanisms important for neuron function and survival especially in developing neurons where it leads the polymerization of other neurofilaments.\u003cbr\u003e\nPathways\u003cbr\u003e\nAlpha Internexin interacts within the neurofilament network a major scaffolding component of neurons. It associates with microtubule-associated proteins influencing axonal growth and stabilization pathways. Moreover it plays a part in the MAPK (mitogen-activated protein kinases) signaling pathways which regulate diverse cellular activities such as proliferation and differentiation. Its interactions with related proteins such as plectin and dynein highlight its role in crosslinking cytoskeletal components and facilitating intracellular transport.\u003cbr\u003e\nAlpha Internexin has been implicated in neurodegenerative conditions such as Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis (ALS) and Alzheimer's disease. Misregulation or mutation in alpha Internexin can contribute to the pathological hallmarks of these diseases including protein aggregation and neuronal death. In ALS the presence of alpha Internexin inclusions correlates with disease pathology alongside other neurofilament proteins like NF-L. In Alzheimer's disease abnormal phosphorylation and aggregation of alpha Internexin are associated with neurofibrillary tangles which are indicative of neuronal injury and loss.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Abcam","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":46855372275881,"sku":"ab7654","price":0.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"url":"https:\/\/iright.com\/ar\/products\/abcam-ab7654","provider":"Iright","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
