Intermediate filament–membrane attachments function synergistically with actin-dependent contacts to regulate intercellular adhesive strength

By tethering intermediate filaments (IFs) to sites of intercellular adhesion, desmosomes facilitate formation of a supercellular scaffold that imparts mechanical strength to a tissue. However, the role IF–membrane attachments play in strengthening adhesion has not been directly examined. To address...
