Abstract excerpt
Intermediate filament (IF) proteins belong to a large and diverse gene family with broad representation in vertebrate tissues. Although considered the 'toughest' cytoskeletal fibers, studies in cultured cells have revealed that IF can be surprisingly dynamic and highly regulated. This review examines the diversity of IF assembly behaviors, and considers the ideas that IF proteins are co- or post-translationally...
