It is one of the subunits of neurofilaments which also include medium and heavy chains. NEFL has a molecular mass of about 61.5 kDa. The protein is predominantly expressed in neurons throughout the central and peripheral nervous systems providing structural support and regulating axon diameter.\u003cbr\u003e\nBiological function summary\u003cbr\u003e\nNeurofilament light polypeptide forms heteropolymers with other neurofilament proteins contributing to the assembly of stable neurofilament fibers. These fibers maintain neuronal integrity and proper conductance velocities of nerve signals. NEFL interacts closely with neurofilament medium and heavy chains playing a role in the structural framework of the neuron. This enables efficient transmission of electrical impulses along axons.\u003cbr\u003e\nPathways\u003cbr\u003e\nNEFL plays a significant role in the neurofilament pathway which is critical for neuronal cytoskeleton assembly and axonal transport. This pathway involves proteins such as NEFM (neurofilament medium) and NEFH (neurofilament heavy). NEFL's involvement in maintaining axonal caliber connects it to important signaling cascades like the axon guidance and neurotransmitter release pathways enhancing neuronal communication.\u003cbr\u003e\nDefects in NEFL can lead to neurological conditions such as Charcot-Marie-Tooth disease type 2E and amyotrophic lateral sclerosis. Mutations or disruptions in NEFL impact axonal transport and neurofilament assembly contributing to neurodegeneration. NEFL is often studied alongside proteins like peripherin which can also exhibit mutations linked to similar neuropathies underlining its importance in neural health.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Abcam","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":46843537424553,"sku":"ab288171","price":0.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"url":"https:\/\/iright.com\/products\/abcam-ab288171","provider":"Iright","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
