What does VIM mean?

Vimentin (VIM) is a protein that belongs to the intermediate filament family and is an essential component of the cytoskeleton in eukaryotic cells.
The name vimentin is derived from the Latin word vimentum, which means an array of flexible or pliant rods. This name was chosen because the protein forms filamentous structures that are flexible and provide mechanical support to cells, much like a network of pliant rods within the cellular cytoskeleton.
