question 49

Short Answer

The proteins of intermediate filaments (IFs)are tissue specific.Unlike microtubules or microfilaments,the amino acid composition of intermediate filaments varies from tissue to tissue.IFs are classified by the cell type or tissue in which they are found.
a. According to your text,how many classes of IF exist?
b. List the classes of IF,the IF proteins,and the tissue (or cells)in the table below.
