Influence of a GSK3β phosphorylation site within the proximal C-terminus of Neurofilament-H on neurofilament dynamics

Phosphorylation of the C-terminal tail of the heavy neurofilament subunit (NF-H) impacts neurofilament (NF) axonal transport and residence within axons by fostering NF-NF associations that compete with transport. We tested the role of phosphorylation of a GSK-3β consensus site (S493) located in the...
