Overlay histogram showing SH-SY5Y cells stained with ab7654 (red line). The cells were fixed with 4% paraformaldehyde (10 min) and then permeabilized with 0.1% PBS-Tween for 20 min. The cells were then incubated in 1x PBS / 10% normal goat serum / 0.3M glycine to block non-specific protein-protein interactions followed by the antibody (ab7654, 1/100 dilution) for 30 min at 22°C. The secondary antibody used was DyLight® 488 goat anti-mouse IgG (H+L) (ab96879) at 1/500 dilution for 30 min at 22°C. Isotype control antibody (black line) was mouse IgG1 [ICIGG1] (ab91353, 2μg/1x106 cells) used under the same conditions. Acquisition of >5,000 events was performed. This antibody gave a positive signal in SH-SY5Y cells fixed with 80% methanol (5 min)/permeabilized with 0.1% PBS-Tween for 20 min used under the same conditions.

Supplementary information

Alpha Internexin also known as alpha-Int or INA is a neuronal intermediate filament protein with a molecular mass of approximately 66 kDa. It plays a significant role in the formation of the neuronal cytoskeleton providing structural support to axons. Alpha Internexin is expressed mainly in the central nervous system and is found in neurons throughout the brain and spinal cord. Despite sharing functions with other intermediate filament proteins like NF-L alpha Internexin is unique in its distribution and timing of expression during neural development.
Biological function summary

Alpha Internexin contributes to the composition of the neurofilament complex which includes proteins like NF-M NF-L and NF-H. This complex stabilizes neuronal architecture and ensures the integrity of the axonal structure. Presence of alpha Internexin is important for maintaining the dynamic processes of axonal transport and neuron stability. It acts as a scaffolding that supports cellular transport mechanisms important for neuron function and survival especially in developing neurons where it leads the polymerization of other neurofilaments.

Pathways

Alpha Internexin interacts within the neurofilament network a major scaffolding component of neurons. It associates with microtubule-associated proteins influencing axonal growth and stabilization pathways. Moreover it plays a part in the MAPK (mitogen-activated protein kinases) signaling pathways which regulate diverse cellular activities such as proliferation and differentiation. Its interactions with related proteins such as plectin and dynein highlight its role in crosslinking cytoskeletal components and facilitating intracellular transport.

Alpha Internexin has been implicated in neurodegenerative conditions such as Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis (ALS) and Alzheimer's disease. Misregulation or mutation in alpha Internexin can contribute to the pathological hallmarks of these diseases including protein aggregation and neuronal death. In ALS the presence of alpha Internexin inclusions correlates with disease pathology alongside other neurofilament proteins like NF-L. In Alzheimer's disease abnormal phosphorylation and aggregation of alpha Internexin are associated with neurofibrillary tangles which are indicative of neuronal injury and loss.

Target data

Class-IV neuronal intermediate filament that is able to self-assemble. It is involved in the morphogenesis of neurons. It may form an independent structural network without the involvement of other neurofilaments or it may cooperate with NEFL to form the filamentous backbone to which NEFM and NEFH attach to form the cross-bridges. May also cooperate with the neuronal intermediate filament protein PRPH to form filamentous networks (By similarity).
