RT filament type sequence followed by a long and acidic carboxy-terminal

RL EMBO J. 3:2701-2706(1984).
CC -!- FUNCTION: Neurofilaments usually contain three intermediate filament
CC proteins: NEFL, NEFM, and NEFH which are involved in the maintenance of
CC neuronal caliber. May additionally cooperate with the neuronal
CC intermediate filament proteins PRPH and INA to form neuronal
CC filamentous networks (By similarity). {ECO:0000250|UniProtKB:P08553}.
CC -!- SUBUNIT: Forms heterodimers with NEFL; which can further hetero-
CC oligomerize (in vitro) (By similarity). Forms heterodimers with INA (in
CC vitro) (By similarity). {ECO:0000250|UniProtKB:P12839}.
CC -!- SUBCELLULAR LOCATION: Cytoplasm, cytoskeleton
CC {ECO:0000250|UniProtKB:P08553}. Cell projection, axon
CC {ECO:0000250|UniProtKB:P08553}.
CC -!- PTM: There are a number of repeats of the tripeptide K-S-P, NFM is
CC phosphorylated on a number of the serines in this motif. It is thought
CC that phosphorylation of NFM results in the formation of interfilament
CC cross bridges that are important in the maintenance of axonal caliber.
CC -!- PTM: Phosphorylation seems to play a major role in the functioning of
CC the larger neurofilament polypeptides (NF-M and NF-H), the levels of
CC phosphorylation being altered developmentally and coincidentally with a
CC change in the neurofilament function.
CC -!- PTM: Phosphorylated in the head and rod regions by the PKC kinase PKN1,
CC leading to the inhibition of polymerization. {ECO:0000250}.
CC -!- SIMILARITY: Belongs to the intermediate filament family.
CC {ECO:0000255|PROSITE-ProRule:PRU01188}.
