Neurofibromin is a large protein of 2818 amino acids <ref>DOI 10.3390/cells9112365</ref> and is a homodimer that exists in two conformations.

+
Neurofibromin consists of multiple domains: N-HEAT/ARM, GRD, Sec14-PH, GAPEx, and C-HEAT/ARM. The two most characterized domains of neurofibromin are the Sec14-PH and GRD domains. Each of the protomers of neurofibromin contains these domains.

The N-HEAT/ARM and C-HEAT/ARM are rigid, which makes them critical in the rearrangement of the Gap-related and Sec14-PH domains. In the closed conformation, the HEAT/ARM domains cover the GRD, preventing the binding of Ras through steric hinderance. The HEAT/ARM cores are made up of many alpha helices. <ref>DOI 10.1038/s41594-021-00687-2</ref>

+
The closed state of neurofibromin has both protomers in a closed conformation, which inhibits the binding of Ras to the GRD of neurofibromin due to the HEAT/ARM blocking the GRD. A metal binding site between the N-HEAT/ARM domain and the GRD-Sec14-PH linker stabilize the closed conformation. This site is coordinated by three residues, C1032, H1558, and H1576, and a water molecule. This binding site is preferential for zinc.

===Active Site===
+
The open state of neurofibromin has one protomer in a open conformation and the other in a closed conformation. The protomer in the open conformation allows for the binding of Ras because of reorientation of the GRD and Sec14-PH domains. In the open conformation, the metal binding site found in the closed conformation is lost due to separation of the N-HEAT/ARM and the cysteine residue from the histidine residues founds in the GRD-Sec14-PH linker.

==== CSRD and CTD ====
 +
The Cysteine-Serine-rich domain (CSRD) and C-terminal domain (CTD) contain phosphorylation sites. The CSRD is able to be phosphorylated by protein kinases [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Protein_kinase_A A] and [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Protein_kinase_C C] Phosphorylation by protein kinase C is a positive regulator of neurofibromin activity. The CTD is phosphorylated primarily by protein kinase C. This domain is a negative regulator of neurofibromin activity if particular residues are phosphorylated. CTD contains a nuclear localization signal as well.
