Abstract excerpt
Intermediate filaments (IFs) commonly have structural elements of a central α-helical coiled-coil domain consisting of coil 1a, coil 1b, coil 2, and their flanking linkers. Recently, the crystal structure of a long lamin A/C fragment was determined and showed detailed features of a tetrameric unit. The structure further suggested a new binding mode between tetramers, designated eA22, where a parallel overlap of...
