Vimentin intermediate filament formation : in vitro measurement and mathematical modeling of the filament length distribution during assembly

The salt-induced in vitro assembly of cytoplasmic intermediate filament (IF) proteins such as vimentin is characterized by a very rapid lateral association of soluble tetrameric subunits into 60-nm-long full-width "unit-length" filaments (ULFs). We have demonstrated for this prototype IF p...
