Cell Sci. 116:2003;3871-3878 In this recent paper, the authors report the RNAi-generated loss-of-function phenotype in C. elegans. Talin knockdown in these cells leads to migratory and cytoskeletal defects, with the phenotype closely resembling the integrin-knockdown phenotype, which suggests a role for talin in the regulation of integrin signals.

Cell. 3:2002;569-579 In this paper, the authors identify the Drosophila gene that encodes talin and show that mutations in this gene lead to a phenotype similar to the loss of integrins. Also, they show that the key role of talin is to juxtapose integrins with actin and is not required for integrin localization to the cell surface.

Lack of these forces in talin-null cells and in actin-binding-deficient talin mutants implicates talin as being essential for the reinforcement of these linkages.
