Summary Summary of gene provided in NCBI Entrez Gene.
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

Protein
UniProt ID P07197
Protein name Neurofilament medium polypeptide (NF-M) (160 kDa neurofilament protein) (Neurofilament 3) (Neurofilament triplet M protein)
Protein function Neurofilaments usually contain three intermediate filament proteins: NEFL, NEFM, and NEFH which are involved in the maintenance of neuronal caliber. May additionally cooperate with the neuronal intermediate filament proteins PRPH and INA to form
