Abstract excerpt
The human neurofilament medium (hNFM) subunit is one of the 3 neurofilament (NF) polypeptides, which are the most abundant intermediate filament (IF) proteins in post-mitotic neurons. The formation of neurofilamentous aggregates is a pathological hallmark of many neurodegenerative diseases, including the Lewy bodies found in Parkinson disease (PD). A Gly336Ser (G336S) variant in the rod domain of hNFM has...
