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:
vav-1Protein vav-1; Acts as guanine nucleotide exchange factor (GEF) for Rho GTPase. Has a critical roles in the generation of rhythmic behaviors: feeding, defecation and ovulation by dynamically regulating the concentration of intracellular calcium. Plays a role in male tail tip morphogenesis. (1007 aa)
dyn-1Dynamin; Microtubule-associated force-producing protein involved in producing microtubule bundles and able to bind and hydrolyze GTP. Most probably involved in vesicular trafficking processes, in particular endocytosis (By similarity). Required for coelomocyte endocytosis. Involved in apoptotic cell phagocytosis. Required for recruitment of phosphatidylinositol 3- kinase piki-1 to phagosomes. May play a role in rab-5 recruitment to cell-corpses-containing phagosomes but not to endosomes. Required for embryonic and larval development. Belongs to the TRAFAC class dynamin-like GTPase supe [...] (838 aa)
tol-1TIR domain-containing protein. (1221 aa)
ced-10Ras-related protein ced-10; Required in engulfing to control the phagocytosis of apoptotic cell corpses. Required in embryonic development for the correct positioning and orientation of the mitotic spindles and division planes in blastomere cells. Involved in hypodermal cell fusion, together with pak-1 and cdc-42, leading to embryonic body elongation, which involves dramatic cytoskeletal reorganization. ced-2 and ced-5 function to activate ced-10 in a GTPase signaling pathway that controls the polarized extension of cell surfaces. Plays a redundant role with mig-2 in dorsal axonal guid [...] (191 aa)
hsp-70Heat Shock Protein; Belongs to the heat shock protein 70 family. (643 aa)
hsp-90Heat shock protein 90; Molecular chaperone that promotes the maturation, structural maintenance and proper regulation of specific target proteins involved for instance in cell cycle control and signal transduction. Undergoes a functional cycle that is linked to its ATPase activity. This cycle probably induces conformational changes in the client proteins, thereby causing their activation. Interacts dynamically with various co- chaperones that modulate its substrate recognition, ATPase cycle and chaperone function. By stabilizing the receptor-type guanylate cyclase daf-11 or another sig [...] (702 aa)
ced-7ABC transporter ced-7; Functions in the engulfment of cell corpses during embryonic programmed cell death to translocate molecules that mediate homotypic adhesion between cell surfaces of the dying and engulfing cells. (1758 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)
ced-8Cell death abnormality protein 8; Acts downstream of ced-9 and caspase ced-3 to promote phosphatidylserine exposure on apoptotic cell surface, possibly by mediating phospholipid scrambling. Phosphatidylserine is a specific marker only present at the surface of apoptotic cells and acts as a specific signal for engulfment. Regulates apoptosis kinetics during embryonic development. Not required for engulfment of germ cell corpses. Belongs to the XK family. (458 aa)
ttr-52Transthyretin-like protein 52; Plays a role as a bridging molecule that mediates recognition and engulfment of apoptotic cells by cross-linking the surface-exposed phosphatidylserine with the extracellular domain of the phagocyte receptor ced-1. Important for the generation of extracellular phosphatidylserine vesicles that promote loss of the exoplasmic leaflet from apoptotic cells in a time-dependent manner. Required for the exposure of exoplasmic leaflet on the phagocytic cells surrounding the apoptotic cells. Does not affect the phosphatidylserine externalization in living cells. Ma [...] (135 aa)
ina-1Integrin alpha ina-1; Plays a role in cell migration, axon fasciculation, and morphogenesis. During gonad morphogenesis, involved in distal tip cells (DTC)-mediated guidance of gonad elongation, in maintaining their sharp tapering morphology and in their migration. Involved in the anterior-posterior positioning of QR neuroblast descendants by regulating the migratory speed of QR.p. Probably by acting as a receptor for apoptotic cells, plays a role in the clearance of apoptotic cells during mid-embryogenesis. Belongs to the integrin alpha chain family. (1139 aa)
nrf-5Nose resistant to fluoxetine protein 5; Plays a role in the uptake of a range of molecules including phosphatidylserine, lipids and xenobiotic compounds from the intestine to surrounding tissues. Possesses lipid transfer activity. Mediates transport of lipids from intestine to reproductive tract. Binds phosphatidylserine. Plays a role in efficient clearance of cell corpses by mediating phosphatidylserine appearance on phagocytic cells, thus promoting phagocytic engulfment of apoptotic cells. Vital for embryonic development. (551 aa)
ced-6Cell death protein 6; May function as an adapter protein in a pathway that mediates recognition and phagocytosis of apoptotic cells during normal development. Promotes engulfment of cells at both early and late stages of apoptosis. Required for actin reorganization around apoptotic cells. Belongs to the ced-6 family. (492 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)
act-5ACTin. (375 aa)
crt-1Calreticulin; Molecular calcium-binding chaperone promoting folding, oligomeric assembly and quality control in the ER via the calreticulin/calnexin cycle (By similarity). This lectin may interact transiently with almost all of the monoglucosylated glycoproteins that are synthesized in the ER (By similarity). Probably by controlling the folding of extracellular matrix protein unc-52/Perlecan, may play a role in the formation of fibrous organelles, a hemidesmosome-like structure attaching muscles to the epidermis. Protects dopaminergic neurons against oxidative stress-induced neurodegen [...] (395 aa)
ZK970.8Uncharacterized protein. (143 aa)
