Related Product Information for anti-NEFL antibody
Human neurofilament light chain (NF-L) is a 61.516 kD protein (543aa) expressed in the axons of CNS and PNS neurons, where it plays a role in maintaining the structural integrity of the axon. Mutations of the NF-L gene product are responsible for some forms of autosomal dominant Charcot-Marie-Tooth neuropathies in humans (i.e., CMT type 1F).

NCBI Description

Neurofilaments are type IV intermediate filament heteropolymers composed of light, medium, and heavy chains. Neurofilaments comprise the axoskeleton and they functionally maintain the neuronal caliber. They may also play a role in intracellular transport to axons and dendrites. This gene encodes the light chain neurofilament protein. Mutations in this gene cause Charcot-Marie-Tooth disease types 1F (CMT1F) and 2E (CMT2E), disorders of the peripheral nervous system that are characterized by distinct neuropathies. A pseudogene has been identified on chromosome Y. [provided by RefSeq, Oct 2008]

Uniprot Description

NFL: one of the three (L, M, and H) intermediate filament proteins that form neurofilaments. Neurofilaments are involved in the maintenance of neuronal caliber. NF-L is the most abundant of the three neurofilament proteins. Defects cause Charcot-Marie-Tooth disease type 1F (CMT1F).

Protein type: Cytoskeletal

Chromosomal Location of Human Ortholog: 8p21

Cellular Component: TSC1-TSC2 complex; growth cone; axon; cytoplasm; neurofilament; cytosol

Molecular Function: protein C-terminus binding; protein binding, bridging; identical protein binding; protein domain specific binding; protein binding; phospholipase binding; structural constituent of cytoskeleton

Biological Process: protein polymerization; response to peptide hormone stimulus; neurofilament bundle assembly; response to toxin; intermediate filament organization; microtubule cytoskeleton organization and biogenesis; axon regeneration in the peripheral nervous system; retrograde axon cargo transport; synaptic transmission; axon transport of mitochondrion; regulation of axon diameter; positive regulation of axonogenesis; negative regulation of neuron apoptosis; neuromuscular process controlling balance; anterograde axon cargo transport; locomotion; neurite morphogenesis; response to corticosterone stimulus

Disease: Charcot-marie-tooth Disease, Demyelinating, Type 1f; Charcot-marie-tooth Disease, Axonal, Type 2e

Product Notes

The NEFL nefl (Catalog #AAA628280) is an Antibody produced from Chicken and is intended for research purposes only. The product is available for immediate purchase. The Neurofilament, Light Chain (NF-L) reacts with Mouse and may cross-react with other species as described in the data sheet. AAA Biotech's Neurofilament, Light Chain can be used in a range of immunoassay formats including, but not limited to, Western Blot (WB), Immunohistochemistry (IHC), Immunocytochemistry (ICC). Suitable for use in Immunohistochemistry, Immunocytochemistry and Western Blot. Dilution: Immunohistochemistry: 1:1000-1:2000 using 2% paraformaldehyde tissues Immunocytochemistry: 1:1000-1:2000 using 2% paraformaldehyde cells Western Blot: 1:2000-1:5000. Researchers should empirically determine the suitability of the NEFL nefl for an application not listed in the data sheet. Researchers commonly develop new applications and it is an integral, important part of the investigative research process. It is sometimes possible for the material contained within the vial of "Neurofilament, Light Chain, Polyclonal Antibody" to become dispersed throughout the inside of the vial, particularly around the seal of said vial, during shipment and storage. We always suggest centrifuging these vials to consolidate all of the liquid away from the lid and to the bottom of the vial prior to opening. Please be advised that certain products may require dry ice for shipping and that, if this is the case, an additional dry ice fee may also be required.
