TALA

The AX4 talin gene has a confirmed stop codon (R. Kay, private communication) that terminates the protein after residue 1,279; immunohistochemistry shows the presence of a very faint truncated talin (A. Mueller-Taubenberger, private communication). AX2 talin is the full length homolog of mammalian talin and other proteins of the band 4.1 superfamily; all functional data is derived from AX2; involved in cell-substrate adhesion and cytokinesis.
