This protein is characterized by its mass of 68 kilodaltons. It expresses specifically in the cytoplasm of neurons where it forms a critical part of the neurofilament protein triplet along with NF-M and NF-H. These components collectively form the intermediate filaments found in the neuron axons providing essential structural support.\u003cbr\u003e\nBiological function summary\u003cbr\u003e\nThe neurofilament protein functions to stabilize the axonal diameter thereby affecting neuronal conductivity. It integrates into a complex with other neurofilament proteins and related molecules forming cross-bridges that aid in strengthening the cellular structure. This protein-protein interaction is vital for normal neuronal function and efficient nerve signal transmission.\u003cbr\u003e\nPathways\u003cbr\u003e\nNeurofilament proteins contribute to cellular processes within the nervous system. It participates in the axonal transport pathway which includes the transport of synaptic vesicles and organelles along axons. This movement is facilitated by interactions with motor proteins like kinesin and dynein which help in moving these materials to their destinations. Additionally NF-L connects to actin filaments collaborating to sustain neuronal shape and function.\u003cbr\u003e\nNeurofilament proteins have links to conditions such as amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) and Alzheimer's disease. Elevated levels of NF-L are often observed in ALS suggesting neuronal damage as axonal injury raises the protein's presence in the cerebrospinal fluid. Similarly in Alzheimer's disease aberrant interaction of tau protein with neurofilament proteins disrupts neuronal function. These connections highlight NF-L's potential as a biomarker for neural injury and neurodegenerative diseases.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Abcam","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":46843798421673,"sku":"ab224840","price":0.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"url":"https:\/\/iright.com\/es\/products\/abcam-ab224840","provider":"Iright","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
