Phenotypic studies continue to contribute to an understanding of the functions of cytoskeletal proteins. Many of these studies indicate some degree of functional redundancy within a family of cytoskeletal proteins. Some surprises have emerged, such as suggestions of unexpected relationships between the actin and microtubule cytoskeletons. Finally, phenotypic studies have provided evidence for a function of intermediate filaments.
表型研究继续有助于人们理解细胞骨架蛋白的功能。许多此类研究表明,细胞骨架蛋白家族内存在一定程度的功能冗余。一些令人惊讶的情况已经出现,比如肌动蛋白和微管细胞骨架之间存在意想不到的关系。最后,表型研究为中间丝的功能提供了证据。
