SNS manual research synthesis

Falcon timed out after 600 seconds; perplexity-lite fallback returned HTTP 401 insufficient quota. The original Falcon process later returned a completed report, which was inspected. The primary-source review is documented in SNS notes, with all cited PMID caches retained.

Direct Sns experiments establish heterophilic adhesion in muscle fusion (PMID:10859168; PMID:19270174), nephrocyte diaphragm assembly and filtration (PMID:18971929; PMID:19515699; PMID:23291470), and differential adhesion in eye and bristle patterning (PMID:20599904; PMID:26053791). PMID:24485456 directly measures fly Rst/Kirre–Sns/Hbs heterocomplexes despite the worm-focused title. The extracellular interactome (PMID:23827685) adds binding observations without establishing their physiological pathways. These sources distinguish Sns gene-level functions from unverified isoform-specific activity.

Selected Q0E9F2 isoform B retains all 1479 residues of RefSeq A, but adds a 63-residue insertion with a second predicted membrane-spanning segment. Reproducible analysis records inputs, alignment, control and output. This concrete topology difference limits transfer of signaling-dependent developmental claims to the selected sequence, while membrane association remains sound. The exact role of the insertion is unresolved.

Unresolved literature items are retained as UNDECIDED: homophilic versus heterophilic interaction in garland nephrocyte adhesion and the specific actin-focus experiment. Abstract-only access is not interpreted as evidence that those experimental annotations are wrong.
