FEBS Open Bio, Volume 11, Issue 5, Page 1299-1312, May 2021., 2021 We transfected SW‐13 cells with human hair keratin K85 and K35 genes. This pair formed short filaments in the cytoplasm, which gradually elongated, became thicker and entangled around the nucleus, indicating that K85–K35 promotes lateral association of short intermediate filaments into bundles but cannot form filament networks in the cytoplasm. Two K85
