Nodes:
Network nodes represent proteins
splice isoforms or post-translational modifications are collapsed, i.e. each node represents all the proteins produced by a single, protein-coding gene locus.
Node Color
colored nodes:
query proteins and first shell of interactors
white nodes:
second shell of interactors
Node Content
empty nodes:
proteins of unknown 3D structure
filled nodes:
a 3D structure is known or predicted
Edges:
Edges represent protein-protein associations
associations are meant to be specific and meaningful, i.e. proteins jointly contribute to a shared function; this does not necessarily mean they are physically binding to each other.
Known Interactions
from curated databases
experimentally determined
Predicted Interactions
gene neighborhood
gene fusions
gene co-occurrence
Others
textmining
co-expression
protein homology
Your Input:
ire-1Serine/threonine-protein kinase/endoribonuclease ire-1; Senses unfolded proteins in the lumen of the endoplasmic reticulum via its N-terminal domain which leads to enzyme auto- activation. The active endoribonuclease domain splices xbp-1 precursor mRNA to produce the mature form which then induces transcription of UPR target genes. Unfolded protein response (UPR) transcriptional activation by ire-1, as well as translational attenuation by pek-1 in a complementary pathway, maintains ER homeostasis. Regulates the transcriptional up-regulation of nucleoside-diphosphatase apy-1 upon ER str [...] (967 aa)
hsp-4Endoplasmic reticulum chaperone BiP homolog; Endoplasmic reticulum chaperone that plays a key role in protein folding and quality control in the endoplasmic reticulum lumen (By similarity). Required for ER dynamics during the first embryonic cell divisions. Specifically, controls ER transition into sheet-like structures at the onset of mitosis, possibly by regulating homotypic membrane fusion. Belongs to the heat shock protein 70 family. (657 aa)
atf-6BZIP domain-containing protein. (589 aa)
pek-1Eukaryotic translation initiation factor 2-alpha kinase pek-1; Phosphorylates the alpha subunit of eukaryotic translation- initiation factor 2 (eIF2alpha), leading to its inactivation and thus to a rapid reduction of translational initiation and repression of global protein synthesis. May phosphorylate eIF2alpha during hypoxia. Proposed to have a role in alleviating endoplasmic reticulum stress ; Belongs to the protein kinase superfamily. Ser/Thr protein kinase family. GCN2 subfamily. (1077 aa)
xbp-1BZIP domain-containing protein. (335 aa)
atf-5BZIP domain-containing protein. (208 aa)
