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:
eat-2Neuronal acetylcholine receptor subunit eat-2; After binding acetylcholine, the AChR responds by an extensive change in conformation that affects all subunits and leads to opening of an ion-conducting channel across the plasma membrane (By similarity). Nicotinic acetylcholine receptor in the MC pharyngeal motor neuron involved in pharyngeal pumping. Has a role in the determination of life span possibly via calorific restriction which affects growth rate, although this is independent of metabolic activity. Plays a role in the defense against the accumulation of ingested live pathogenic [...] (474 aa)
ced-1Cell death abnormality protein 1; Involved in programmed cell death, also called apoptosis, in both somatic and germ cells. Acts by recruiting ced-6 to phagosomes which enables actin-dependent cytoskeletal reorganization and subsequent engulfment of the apoptotic cell corpse. Has a role in the association of ppk-3 and rab-7 with the phagosomal surface which is necessary for the incorporation of lysosomes to phagosomes during phagosome maturation. Activates the expression of unfolded protein response genes, which are involved in the immune response to live bacteria. (1111 aa)
oct-2MFS domain-containing protein. (757 aa)
ced-4Cell death protein 4; Component of the egl-1, ced-9, ced-4 and ced-3 apoptotic signaling cascade required for the initiation of programmed cell death in cells fated to die during embryonic and postembryonic development. During oogenesis, required for germline apoptosis downstream of ced-9 and upstream of ced-3 but independently of egl-1. May regulate germline apoptosis in response to DNA damage, probably downstream of let-60/ras and mpk-1 pathway. Regulates CEP neuron apoptosis in response to high Al(3+) levels. During male tail morphogenesis, promotes apoptosis of the tail-spike cell [...] (571 aa)
ced-3Cell death protein 3 subunit p13; Acts as a cysteine protease in controlling programmed cell death (apoptosis) by proteolytically activating or inactivating a wide range of substrates. Component of the egl-1, ced-9, ced-4 and ced-3 apoptotic signaling cascade required for the initiation of programmed cell death in cells fated to die during embryonic and postembryonic development. During oogenesis, required for germline apoptosis downstream of ced-9 and ced-4 but independently of egl-1. By cleaving and activating ced-8, promotes phosphatidylserine exposure on the surface of apoptotic ce [...] (503 aa)
pmp-3Peroxisomal Membrane Protein related. (688 aa)
pes-23MFS domain-containing protein. (520 aa)
egl-1Programmed cell death activator egl-1; Plays a major role in programmed cell death (PCD or apoptosis) by negatively regulating ced-9. Binds to and directly inhibits the activity of ced-9, releasing the cell death activator ced-4 from a ced- 9/ced-4 containing protein complex and allowing ced-4 to activate the cell-killing caspase ced-3. Required to activate programmed cell death in the sister cells of the serotonergic neurosecretory motor (NSM) neurons during embryogenesis. Required to activate programmed cell death in the sister cells of the M4 motor neuron and I1 pharyngeal neuron du [...] (106 aa)
dpy-5Cuticle collagen dpy-5; Nematode cuticles are composed largely of collagen-like proteins. The cuticle functions both as an exoskeleton and as a barrier to protect the worm from its environment. (284 aa)
cep-1Transcription factor cep-1; Transcriptional activator that binds the same DNA consensus sequence as p53. Has a role in normal development to ensure proper meiotic chromosome segregation. Promotes apoptosis under conditions of cellular and genotoxic stress in response to DNA damage, hypoxia, or starvation. Regulates germline apoptosis in response to DNA damage. Its pro-apoptotic activity is inhibited when bound to ape-1 in vitro. Plays a role in cell cycle arrest in the germline in response to DNA damage by UV-C light. However, not required for survival in response to DNA damage induced [...] (644 aa)
oct-1Organic cation transporter 1; Transports organic cations such as tetraethylammonium (TEA). Displays a broad substrate specificity. (585 aa)
msh-2DNA_MISMATCH_REPAIR_2 domain-containing protein. (849 aa)
xpa-1XPA_C domain-containing protein. (241 aa)
gst-4Glutathione S-transferase 4; Conjugation of reduced glutathione to a wide number of exogenous and endogenous hydrophobic electrophiles (By similarity). May play a role in the detoxification of reactive oxygen species produced during pathogenic bacterial infection. (207 aa)
apn-1DNA-(apurinic or apyrimidinic site) lyase. (396 aa)
ced-9Apoptosis regulator ced-9; Plays a major role in programmed cell death (PCD, apoptosis). egl-1 binds to and directly inhibits the activity of ced-9, releasing the cell death activator ced-4 from a ced-9/ced-4 containing protein complex and allowing ced-4 to activate the cell-killing caspase ced-3. During larval development, required for the elimination of transient presynaptic components downstream of egl-1 and upstream of ced-4 and ced-3 apoptotic pathway. (280 aa)
skn-1Protein skinhead-1; Transcription factor required to specify the fate of ventral blastomeres in the early embryo, and postembryonically for the development of the intestine. Directly regulates expression of zygotically expressed med-1 and med-2 to direct mesendoderm development. Required for stl-1 mRNA up- regulation in response to oxidative stress and anoxia. Required for the up-regulation of gcs-1 and several glutathione-S-transferase mRNAs in response to oxidative stress generated during pathogenic bacterial infection. In neurons, involved in mitochondrial fusion and behavioral reco [...] (623 aa)
act-5ACTin. (375 aa)
rad-51DNA repair protein RAD51 homolog; Binds to single and double-stranded DNA and exhibits DNA- dependent ATPase activity. Underwinds duplex DNA. (395 aa)
