Hierarchical Structure Controls Nanomechanical Properties of Vimentin Intermediate Filaments
Intermediate filaments (often abbreviated as IFs), in addition to microtubules and microfilaments, are one of the three major components of the cytoskeleton in eukaryotic cells (Figure 1). It has been suggested that intermediate filaments are crucial in defining key mechanical functions of cells suc...
