About NEFM

Cytogenetic location: 8p21.2 Genomic coordinates (GRCh38): 8:24,913,761-24,919,093 (from NCBI)

This gene has 6 transcripts (splice variants), 83 orthologues and 68 paralogues. Biased expression in brain (RPKM 56.0), adrenal (RPKM 9.7) and 1 other tissue.

Summary

Neurofilaments are type IV intermediate filament heteropolymers composed of light, medium, and heavy chains. Neurofilaments comprise the axoskeleton and functionally maintain neuronal caliber. They may also play a role in intracellular transport to axons and dendrites. This gene encodes the medium neurofilament protein. This protein is commonly used as a biomarker of neuronal damage. Alternative splicing results in multiple transcript variants encoding distinct isoforms. [provided by RefSeq, Oct 2008]
