Target Information

Target Symbol VIM
Target Name Vimentin
UniProt ID P08670
Cellular Localization Cytoplasm.
Function 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.Involved with LARP6 in the stabilization of type I collagen mRNAs for CO1A1 and CO1A2.
Involvement in Disease Cataract 3
Post-translational Modifications Filament disassembly during mitosis is promoted by phosphorylation at Ser-55 as well as by nestin (By similarity). One of the most prominent phosphoproteins in various cells of mesenchymal origin. Phosphorylation is enhanced during cell division, at which time vimentin filaments are significantly reorganized. Phosphorylation by PKN1 inhibits the formation of filaments. Phosphorylated at Ser-56 by CDK5 during neutrophil secretion in the cytoplasm. Phosphorylated by STK33. O-glycosylated during cytokinesis at sites identical or close to phosphorylation sites, this interferes with the phosphorylation status. S-nitrosylation is induced by interferon-gamma and oxidatively-modified low-densitity lipoprotein (LDL(ox)) possibly implicating the iNOS-S1A8/9 transnitrosylase complex.
Domain The central alpha-helical coiled-coil rod region mediates elementary homodimerization.The-x-C-x-x-[DE] motif is a proposed target motif for cysteine S-nitrosylation mediated by the iNOS-S1A8/A9 transnitrosylase complex.
Sequence Similarities Belongs to the intermediate filament family.
