Abstract excerpt
Ser55 within the head domain of neurofilament light chain (NF-L) is transiently phosphorylated by protein kinase A, and phosphorylation of this residue is thought to regulate assembly of neurofilaments. To understand how Ser55 phosphorylation influences NF-L assembly, wild-type and mutant NF-L genes in which Ser55 was mutated to alanine, so as to prevent phosphorylation, or to aspartate, so as to mimic permanent...
