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:
sid-1Systemic RNA interference defective protein 1; Plays a role in RNA-mediated gene silencing by acting cell- autonomously as a channel for the transport of double-stranded RNA (dsRNA) between cells. Mediates the spread of dsRNA and subsequent silencing of genes in cells distant from the site of dsRNA introduction. Selective for dsRNA. Preferentially binds long dsRNA, from 50 base pairs up to 700. Short 20 base-pair long molecules are not bound. May also bind dsDNA, but with lower affinity. Binding may be sequence-independent. Belongs to the SID1 family. (776 aa)
plk-1Serine/threonine-protein kinase plk-1; Required for oocyte nuclear envelope breakdown before entry of oocyte into spermatheca. In meiotic cells, required for spindle dynamics and probably for spindle attachment to the chromosomes. Zygotic role in the development of the germline and nerve cord. In mitotic cells, plays a role in spindle organization and centrosome maturation. Involved in asymmetric nuclear localization of cdc- 25.1 during embryogenesis which affects cell division timing. Together with plk- 2, regulates cytoplasm polarity in early embryos. May play a minor role in chromos [...] (649 aa)
ubc-9SUMO-conjugating enzyme UBC9; Accepts the ubiquitin-like protein smo-1 from the aos-1-uba-2 E1 complex and catalyzes its covalent attachment to other proteins with the help of an E3 ligase such as gei-17. Required to sumoylate the ETS transcription factor lin-1 and the Polycomb protein sop-2. Required for embryonic development, fertility, vulval morphogenesis and inhibition of vulval cell fates. Belongs to the ubiquitin-conjugating enzyme family. (166 aa)
smo-1Small ubiquitin-related modifier; Ubiquitin-like protein which can be covalently attached to target lysines as a monomer. Does not seem to be involved in protein degradation and may function as an antagonist of ubiquitin in the degradation process. Plays a role in a number of cellular processes such as nuclear transport, DNA replication and repair, mitosis and signal transduction. Covalent attachment to its substrates requires prior activation by the E1 complex aos-1-uba-2 and linkage to the E2 enzyme ubc-9, and can be promoted by an E3 ligase such as gei-17. Required for embryonic dev [...] (91 aa)
cul-3Cullin-3; Probable core component of multiple cullin-RING-based BCB (BTB-CUL3-BTB) E3 ubiquitin-protein ligase complexes which mediate the ubiquitination and subsequent proteasomal degradation of target proteins. Probably acts as a scaffold protein which may contribute to catalysis through positioning of the substrate and the ubiquitin-conjugating enzyme. Required to target mei-3/katanin for degradation at the meiosis to mitosis transition via its neddylation and deneddylation. Functions in ubiquitin-mediated degradation of CKIs to target cki-1 for degradation. Regulates microtubule st [...] (777 aa)
