Vimentin: the conundrum of the intermediate filament gene family.

BioEssays : news and reviews in molecular, cellular and developmental biology - 1 Jan 1998

Evans R M

Abstract excerpt

Intermediate filaments are a major component of the "cytoskeleton" of "higher" eukaryotes. These filaments are composed of a number of different, although structurally related, proteins. Different intermediate filament protein genes are expressed in different tissues. Spontaneous and experimentally produced mutations in the intermediate filament genes indicate that these filaments function to enhance the...
