General annotation (Comments)

Function

Vimentins are class-III intermediate filaments found in various non-epithelial cells, especially mesenchymal cells.

Subunit structure

Homopolymer. Component of a complex composed at least of ACTB, AP2M1, AP2A1, AP2A2, MEGF10 and VIM. Interacts with HCV core protein.

Tissue specificity

Highly expressed in fibroblasts, some expression in T- and B-lymphocytes, and little or no expression in Burkitt's lymphoma cell lines. Expressed in many hormone-independent mammary carcinoma cell lines.

Post-translational modification

One of the most prominent phosphoproteins in various cells of mesenchymal origin. Phosphorylation is enhanced during cell division, at which time vimentin filaments are significantly reorganized.

Sequence similarities

Belongs to the intermediate filament family.

Sequence caution

The sequence BAB71275.1 differs from that shown. Reason: Miscellaneous discrepancy. Intron retention.
