vimentin(VIM) Homo sapiens This gene encodes a member of the intermediate filament family. Intermediate filamentents, along with microtubules and actin microfilaments, make up the cytoskeleton. The protein encoded by this gene 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 this gene causes a dominant, pulverulent cataract.[provided by RefSeq, Jun 2009],

VIM identifies vimentin in Homo sapiens (Human). This target record connects NCBI Gene 7431, UniProtKB P08670 and related ABMIUM catalogue products.
Biological function: VIM (vimentin) is a class III intermediate-filament protein expressed especially in mesenchymal and other non-epithelial cells. It contributes to cytoskeletal organisation, cell shape and directional migration, including organisation at the leading edge of migrating cells.
