Vimentins are class-III intermediate filaments found in various non-epithelial cells, especially mesenchymal cells. Vimentin is attached to the nucleus, endoplasmic reticulum, and mitochondria, either laterally or terminally. Plays a role in cell directional movement, orientation, cell sheet organization and Golgi complex polarization at the cell migration front (By similarity). Protects SCRIB from proteasomal degradation and facilitates its localization to intermediate filaments in a cell contact-mediated manner (By similarity). Involved with LARP6 in the stabilization of type I collagen mRNAs for CO1A1 and CO1A2.

Vimentin is a type of intermediate filament protein that plays a significant role in cancer biology. It is commonly used as a marker for epithelial-mesenchymal transition (EMT), a process where epithelial cells acquire mesenchymal properties, which is crucial for cancer metastasis. Vimentin is often overexpressed in various types of cancers and its overexpression is associated with increased tumor growth, invasion, and poor prognosis.
