Synonyms | NF68, NFL |
Function | Neurofilaments usually contain three intermediate filament proteins: NEFL, NEFM, and NEFH which are involved in the maintenance of neuronal caliber. May additionally cooperate with the neuronal intermediate filament proteins PRPH and INA to form neuronal filamentous networks (By similarity). |
Cellular Location | Cell projection, axon {ECO:0000250|UniProtKB:P08551}. Cytoplasm, cytoskeleton {ECO:0000250|UniProtKB:P08551} |

Background
NEFL is type IV intermediate filament heteropolymers composed of light, medium, and heavy chains. This protein comprises the axoskeleton and it functionally maintains the neuronal caliber. The protein may also play a role in intracellular transport to axons and dendrites. Mutations in this protein cause Charcot-Marie-Tooth disease types 1F (CMT1F) and 2E (CMT2E), disorders of the peripheral nervous system that are characterized by distinct neuropathies.
