Research context & evidence
Target information is kept separate from product-level validation so you can review the biology and the reagent evidence independently.
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.
VIM is widely studied in cytoskeletal organisation, mesenchymal cell biology, cell migration, tissue remodelling and epithelial-to-mesenchymal transition models. Reagent selection should consider species, cell state, sample type, assay format, application and supporting validation.
