Primary Sequence, Secondary Structure, Gene Structure, and Assembly Properties Suggests that the Lens-specific Cytoskeletal Protein Filensin Represents a Novel Class of Intermediate Filament Protein

The ocular lens fiber cell assembles a novel cytoskeletal element, the Beaded Filament, from CP49 and filensin, two proteins expressed only in the differentiated lens fiber cell. We report the primary sequence, secondary structural analysis, gene structure and Yeast Two Hybrid interaction data for h...
