A possible mechanism for neurofilament slowing down in myelinated axon: Phosphorylation-induced variation of NF kinetics.
Neurofilaments(NFs) are the most abundant intermediate filaments that make up the inner volume of axon, with possible phosphorylation on their side arms, and their slow axonal transport by molecular motors along microtubule tracks in a "stop-and-go" manner with rapid, intermittent and bidi...
