Protein attributes
| Sequence length | 1621 AA. |
| Sequence status | Complete. |
| Protein existence | Evidence at protein level |
General annotation (Comments)
| Function | Required for brain and eye development. Promotes the disassembly of phosphorylated vimentin intermediate filaments (IF) during mitosis and may play a role in the trafficking and distribution of IF proteins and other cellular factors to daughter cells during progenitor cell division. Required for survival, renewal and mitogen-stimulated proliferation of neural progenitor cells By similarity. |
| Subunit structure | Forms homodimers and homotetramers in vitro. In mixtures with other intermediate filament proteins such as vimentin and alpha-internexin, tis protein preferentially forms heterodimers which can assemble to form intermediate filaments if nestin does not exceed 25%. Interacts with FHOD3 By similarity. |
| Tissue specificity | CNS stem cells. |
| Developmental stage | Upon terminal neural differentiation, nestin is down-regulated and replaced by neurofilaments. |
| Post-translational modification | Constitutively phosphorylated. This increases during mitosis when the cytoplasmic intermediate filament network is reorganized By similarity. |
| Sequence similarities | Belongs to the intermediate filament family. |
