Background
Neuronal intermediate filaments (NIF) are type-IV intermediate filaments found specifically on neurons where they play key role in maintaining neuronal morphology as well as in regenerating myelinated axons. NIF contain three subunits: a light polypeptide (NEFL/NFL), a medium polypeptide (NEFM/NFM), and a heavy polypeptide (NEFH/NFH), with molecular weights of 68, 160, and 212 kD respectively. Mature NIFs are heteropolymers with about 4:2:1 stoichiometric ratio of NEFL: NEFM: NEFH and also contain a fourth type-IV intermediate filament (IF) subunit, alpha-internexin. NEFM is essential to cross-bridge formation, stabilization, and longitudinal extension of filamentous network and is more critical than NEFH in regulating NIF's structure and function. NEFM is crucial for the acquisition of normal axonal caliber in response to a myelin-dependent "outside-in" trigger for radial axonal growth and removal of the tail domain as well as lysine-serine-proline (KSP) repeats of NEFM, but not NEFH, produces axons with impaired radial growth and reduced conduction velocities. Moreover, mutations of NEFM have been associated with CNS/PNS disorders such as ALS, Parkinson's disease etc., and an imbalance in NEFM's O-GlcNAcylation - phosphorylation regulation plays a crucial role in in Alzheimer disease.
