Abstract:
:To study the assembly of intermediate filaments in vivo we have transfected fibroblast cell lines with the cDNAs coding for keratins 8 and 18 under the control of the promoter of the SV40 early region and followed keratin expression by RNA hybridization, two-dimensional gel electrophoresis, and immunofluorescence analysis. When expressed individually, keratins 8 and 18 failed to polymerize into intermediate filaments but formed granular aggregates of variable size distributed throughout the cytoplasm as seen by staining with specific antibodies. The expression of one of these two keratins did not induce the synthesis of its partner or of any other keratin. Coexpression of the two keratins produced filamentous structures, frequently perinuclear, indicating that the two types of polypeptides were able to assemble into intermediate filaments but could not form the cytoskeleton characteristic of epithelial cells. These results demonstrate that assembly in heterocomplexes stabilizes keratins against cellular degradation, helping to explain why excess pools of simple keratins have never been detected.
