The function of intermediate filaments in cell shape and cytoskeletal integrity
-
of outstanding interest. The use of injected intermediate filament (IF) mimetic peptides that rapidly disrupt all three filamentous networks of the cytoskeleton suggests a central role for filaments in maintaining cellular architecture and hints that IF-associated proteins may act as adaptors between the different network types.

Cloning and characterization of mouse ACF7, a novel member of the dystonin subfamily of actin binding proteins

of special interest. This preliminary characterization of the newest plakin family member, mACF7, reveals that the three mACF7 isoforms have considerable homology to BPAG1n/dystonin and also contain actin binding domain regions. It seems likely that this is the first of many such linking proteins to be found using homology with other proteins known to connect intermediate filaments to other cytoskeletal components.
