The testis specificity index was calculated from modENCODE tissue expression data by Vedelek et al., 2018 to indicate the degree of testis enrichment compared to other tissues. Scores range from -2.52 (underrepresented) to 5.2 (very high testis bias).

Please Note This section lists cDNAs and ESTs that fall within the genomic extent of the gene model, which may include cDNAs and ESTs of genes within introns, or of overlapping genes. Please see JBrowse for alignment of the cDNAs and ESTs to the gene model.
For each fully sequenced cDNA the DGRC maintains various forms of the cDNA (e.g tagged or untagged) in several different host vectors for subsequent cloning and expression in Drosophila and Drosophila cell lines.

In vitro fusion of the homologous extracellular domain of Egfr and Glt to the Nrt cytoplasmic domain can mediate aggregation of cells incubated with a soluble crude fraction containg Nrt ligand activity. The binding site for the Nrt ligand is localised within the extracellular domain. A stretch of 25 amino acids forms an alpha-helix located close to the pseudocatalytic site and is crucial for the adhesive function.
Glt encodes an acidic sulphated glycoprotein of basement membranes.
Encodes an acidic sulfated glycoprotein of basement membranes.
