AlphaFold produces a per-residue confidence score (pLDDT) between 0 and 100. Some regions with low pLDDT may be unstructured in isolation.

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.
dsRNA made from templates generated with primers directed against this gene tested in RNAi screen for effects on Kc167 and S2R+ cell morphology.
dsRNA made from templates generated with primers directed against this gene is tested in an RNAi screen for effects on actin-based lamella formation.
f regulates the size and shape of actin bundles in the developing bristle.
Definitive denticle belt phenotypes (abnormal hairs and/or bristles) are foreshadowed by abnormal organisation of the actin cytoskeleton in embryonic epidermal cells.
Alterations in the ratios among the f proteins and other components of the bristle fiber, result in abnormal assembly of the fibrillar cytoplasmic structures necessary for bristle morphogenesis.
Macrochaetae, microchaetae and trichomes affected to various degrees depending on allele -- short, gnarled and bent with ends split or sharply bent. Treatment with methylurea causes normal bristle formation (De Marinis).
Some mutations in f are due to insertion of a Stalker element.
Mutant alleles are useful as markers in clonal analysis.
Developmental studies show nature of pupal bristle secretion is affected.
Green (Green, 1955; Green, 1956) showed the forked mutants can be assigned to either of two pseudoallelic series, f is a member of the right series. Back mutations to f+ occur spontaneously and their incidence is not increased by X rays (Green, 1959; Lefevre and Green, 1959).

Descriptions of phenotypes are such as to make classification highly subjective. Bridges (1938; see also Bridges and Brehme, 1942) lists 14 lost alleles of diverse origin not included here, and Belgovsky (1940) lists 35 "fB" alleles induced by X rays in In(1)sc8 or In(1)BM2, of which 33 are lost and not included here.
