Neurofilament light polypeptide is a protein that in humans is encoded by the NEFL gene.^[1]^[2]

It is associated with Charcot–Marie–Tooth disease 1F and 2E. The Neurofilament light subunit can be measured with immunoassays in cerebrospinal fluid and plasma and reflects axonal damage in neurological disorders.^[3] It is a useful maker for disease monitoring in Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis,^[4] multiple sclerosis^[5] and more recently Huntingtons disease.^[6]

NEFL has been shown to interact with:
