Background:

Neurofilaments usually contain three intermediate filament proteins: L, M, and H which are involved in the maintenance of neuronal caliber. The extra mass and high charge density that distinguish the neurofilament proteins from all other intermediate filament proteins are due to the tailpiece extensions. This region may form a charged scaffolding structure suitable for interaction with other neuronal components or ions.

Specificity:

NF-M (K591) polyclonal antibody detects endogenous levels of NF-M protein.

Alternative names:

Neurofilament medium polypeptide; NF-M; 160 kDa neurofilament protein; Neurofilament 3; Neurofilament triplet M protein; NEF3; NFM; NEFM
