Term Name: intermediate filament bundle assembly Search Ontology:
Synonyms:
  • tonofilament assembly
Definition: The formation of the bundles of intermediate filaments. Intermediate filament-associated proteins (IFAPs) cross-link intermediate filaments with one another, forming a bundle or a network, and with other cell structures, including the plasma membrane. The organization of intermediate filaments and their supportive function in various cells types depends in large part on their linkage to other cell structures via IFAPs. 0716731363
