Phosphorylation by Cdk1 induces Plk1-mediated vimentin phosphorylation during mitosis [PDF]

open access: yes, 2005
Several kinases phosphorylate vimentin, the most common intermediate filament protein, in mitosis. Aurora-B and Rho-kinase regulate vimentin filament separation through the cleavage furrow-specific vimentin phosphorylation.

Structure of the hDmc1-ssDNA filament reveals the principles of its architecture [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
In eukaryotes, meiotic recombination is a major source of genetic diversity, but its defects in humans lead to abnormalities such as Down's, Klinefelter's and other syndromes.

Immunohistochemical expression of intermediate filaments in diagnostics of diffuse gliomas.

open access: yesMedičnì Perspektivi, 2017

Role of Intermediate Filaments in Blood–Brain Barrier in Health and Disease

open access: yesCells, 2021
The blood–brain barrier (BBB) is a highly selective cellular monolayer unique to the microvasculature of the central nervous system (CNS), and it mediates the communication of the CNS with the rest of the body by regulating the passage of molecules into ...

Periplakin, a novel component of cornified envelopes and desmosomes that belongs to the plakin family and forms complexes with envoplakin [PDF]

open access: yes, 1997
The cornified envelope is a layer of transglutaminase cross-linked protein that is assembled under the plasma membrane of keratinocytes in the outermost layers of the epidermis.

Keratin 76 is required for tight junction function and maintenance of the skin barrier. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS Genetics, 2014
Keratins are cytoskeletal intermediate filament proteins that are increasingly being recognised for their diverse cellular functions. Here we report the consequences of germ line inactivation of Keratin 76 (Krt76) in mice.

Intermediate filament-co-localized molecules with myosin heavy chain epitopes define distinct cellular domains in hair follicles and epidermis

open access: yesBMC Cell Biology, 2003
Background Proteins linking intermediate filaments to other cytoskeletal components have important functions in maintaining tissue integrity and cell shape.

Envoplakin, a novel precursor of the cornified envelope that has homology to desmoplakin [PDF]

open access: yes, 1996
The cornified envelope is a layer of transglutaminase cross-linked protein that is deposited under the plasma membrane of keratinocytes in the outermost layers of the epidermis.

The apical submembrane cytoskeleton participates in the organization of the apical pole in epithelial cells [PDF]

open access: yes, 1997
In a previous publication (Rodriguez, M.L., M. Brignoni, and P.J.I. Salas. 1994. J. Cell Sci. 107: 3145-3151), we described the existence of a terminal web-like structure in nonbrush border cells, which comprises a specifically apical cytokeratin ...

Trichinella britovi muscle larvae and adult worms: stage-specific and common antigens detected by two-dimensional gel electrophoresis-based immunoblotting

open access: yesParasites & Vectors, 2018
Background Trichinella britovi is the second most common species of Trichinella that may affect human health. As an early diagnosis of trichinellosis is crucial for effective treatment, it is important to identify sensitive, specific and common antigens ...
