A chimeric neurofilament. Time-lapse video of a chimeric neurofilament composed of one red and two green segments obtained using the cell fusion strategy. The red segment is a heteropolymer of NFM-mCherry and NFL, whereas the green segments are heteropolymers of NFM-GFP and NFL. The images were acquired at 2–3-min intervals over a 12-min period. Note that the red and green segments remain contiguous as the filament moves, indicating that they are part of the same filament


Intermediate filaments exchange subunits along their length and elongate by end-to-end annealing
