The cytoskeleton functions as the cellular scaffold or framework within a cell. Present in eukaryotic and prokaryotic cells, the cytoskeleton plays important roles in both cellular transport and cell division. In addition to purified cytoskeletal elements, Sigma offers a vast array of antibodies, proteins, and chemical inhibitors that modulate the function of the cytoskeleton. These products allow researchers to tease apart the interactions between microfilaments such as actin, intermediate filaments like vimentin, and microtubules; all of which impact cell division, motility, and health.
