Filensin and phakinin form a novel type of beaded intermediate filaments and coassemble de novo in cultured cells
The fiber cells of the eye lens possess a unique cytoskeletal system known as the "beaded-chain filaments" (BFs). BFs consist of filensin and phakinin, two recently characterized intermediate filament (IF) proteins. To examine the organization and the assembly of these heteropolymeric IFs,...
