Cytolinker Cross-talk: Periplakin N-terminus Interacts with Plectin to Regulate Keratin Organisation and Epithelial Migration

open access: yes, 2007
Periplakin is a cytoskeletal linker protein that participates in the assembly of epidermal cell cornified envelope and regulates keratin organisation in simple epithelial cells.

Plectin isoform P1b and P1d deficiencies differentially affect mitochondrial morphology and function in skeletal muscle

open access: yes, 2016
Plectin, a versatile 500-kDa cytolinker protein, is essential for muscle fiber integrity and function. The most common disease caused by mutations in the human plectin gene, epidermolysis bullosa simplex with muscular dystrophy (EBS-MD), is characterized

Reconstitution of cytolinker-mediated crosstalk between actin and vimentin

open access: yesEuropean Journal of Cell Biology
Cell shape and motility are determined by the cytoskeleton, an interpenetrating network of actin filaments, microtubules, and intermediate filaments. The biophysical properties of each filament type individually have been studied extensively by cell-free

Specificity of binding of the plectin actin-binding domain to β4 integrin

open access: yes, 2003
Plectin is a major component of the cytoskeleton and links the intermediate filament system to hemidesmosomes by binding to the integrin β4 subunit. Previously, a binding site for β4 was mapped on the actin-binding domain (ABD) of plectin and binding of ...

Filamin A in the ovary: a mediator of granulosa cell functions

open access: yesReproduction and Fertility
Filamin A (FLNA) regulates the mechanical properties and shape of cells by cross-linking actin filaments orthogonally. It also serves as a scaffold for numerous interacting proteins, thereby coordinating cell differentiation and morphogenesis.

Effects of Oxidative Stress on The Cytoskeletal Crosslinker Protein, Plectin

open access: yes, 2005
Oxidative stress has been implicated in the onset of various diseases, including renal failure and neurodegenerative diseases. Increasing number of studies suggest the involvement of multiple processes in the pathogenesis of cell injury during oxidative ...

Expression and localisation of intermediate filaments in plectin-defiucient muscles

open access: yes
Plectin ist ein 500 kDa großes multifunktionales Zytolinker-Protein und spielt eine äußerst wichtige Rolle im Zytoskelett, da es die korrekte Organisation von Zellen gewährleistet.
