General annotation (Comments)

Function

Neurofilaments usually contain three intermediate filament proteins: L, M, and H which are involved in the maintenance of neuronal caliber.

Post-translational modification

Phosphorylated on a number of serine residues in the repeated K-S-P tripeptide motif. Phosphorylation of NFH may result in the formation of interfilament cross-links that are important in the maintenance of axonal caliber By similarity. Ref.1

Phosphorylation seems to play a major role in the functioning of the larger neurofilament polypeptides (NF-M and NF-H), the levels of phosphorylation being altered developmentally and coincidentally with a change in the neurofilament function By similarity.

Phosphorylated in the head and rod regions by the PKC kinase PKN1, leading to the inhibition of polymerization By similarity. Ref.1

Sequence similarities

Belongs to the intermediate filament family.

Mass spectrometry

Molecular mass is 105044 Da from positions 2 - 926. Determined by MALDI. Ref.1
