Vimentin, a class-III intermediate filament, is present in various non-epithelial cells, particularly mesenchymal cells, and connects either laterally or terminally to the nucleus, endoplasmic reticulum, and mitochondria. It is involved with LARP6 in stabilizing type I collagen mRNAs for CO1A1 and CO1A2. This supplementary information is collated from multiple sources and compiled automatically.
