talin, tendrils
(preferred name: Rhea) essential for integrin function - crosslinks extracellular matrix-linked integrins to the cytoskeleton - represses E-cadherin Shotgun transcription in follicle cells independently of integrins

AlphaFold produces a per-residue confidence score (pLDDT) between 0 and 100. Some regions with low pLDDT may be unstructured in isolation.
Annotated transcripts do not represent all possible combinations of alternative exons and/or alternative promoters.
Low-frequency RNA-Seq exon junction(s) not annotated.
Annotated transcripts do not represent all supported alternative splices within 5' UTR.
Gene model reviewed during 5.46

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).
Through embryonic stages 14-17, rhea immunolabel was detected along the leading and basal domains of migrating cardioblasts, but was not detected on lateral cell membranes between ipsilateral cardioblasts.
The rhea protein was detected in the cytoplasm of early cellularized embryos. Subsequently, rhea protein concentrated at the membrane of migrating midgut primordial cells and then at muscle attachment sites, specifically at hemi-adherens junctions. In wing imaginal discs the rhea protein localized to focal adhesion like structures at the basal surface.

Please Note FlyBase no longer curates genomic clone accessions so this list may not be complete
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.

monoclonal
rhea is required for maintenance of tracheal terminal branches and luminal organization.
S2 cells treated with dsRNA generated against this gene show reduced phagocytosis of Candida albicans compared to untreated cells.
dsRNA made from templates generated with primers directed against this gene tested in RNAi screen for effects on Kc167 and S2R+ cell morphology.
RNAi screen using dsRNA made from templates generated with primers directed against this gene causes a phenotype when assayed in S2R+ cells: cells become round and detached. Kc167 cells are unaffected.
dsRNA made from templates generated with primers directed against this gene is tested in an RNAi screen for effects on actin-based lamella formation.
Identification: Genetic screen for autosomal mutations that produce blisters in somatic wing clones.
Mutations affect myo-epidermal junctions or muscle function in embryos.
Identification: Genetic screen for autosomal mutations that produce blisters in somatic wing clones. 2 alleles of rhea have been isolated.
