Alternative Name: Vimentin

Background: Rabbit Anti-Vimentin (phospho Ser56) Polyclonal Antibody,VIM, Vimentin,VIM (vimentin) encodes a member of the intermediate filament family. Intermediate filamentents, along with microtubules and actin microfilaments, make up the cytoskeleton. The protein encoded by VIM is responsible for maintaining cell shape, integrity of the cytoplasm, and stabilizing cytoskeletal interactions. It is also involved in the immune response, and controls the transport of low-density lipoprotein (LDL)-derived cholesterol from a lysosome to the site of esterification. It functions as an organizer of a number of critical proteins involved in attachment, migration, and cell signaling. Mutations in VIM causes a dominant, pulverulent cataract.,Vimentin
