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:
tax-6Serine/threonine-protein phosphatase 2B catalytic subunit; Calcium-dependent, calmodulin-stimulated protein phosphatase. Dephosphorylates arrd-17. Dephosphorylates daf-16 at 'Ser-319' which regulates daf-16 nuclear translocation. Dephosphorylates calcium permeable cation channel pkd-2 at 'Ser-534'. Regulates male mating behavior including response to hermaphrodite contact and vulva location and localization of pkd-2 to neuronal cilium. Negatively regulates several sensory behaviors including thermotaxis in ADF neurons, osmosensation in ASH neurons, olfaction adaptation in AWC neurons a [...] (545 aa)
nca-2Four domain-type voltage-gated ion channel alpha-1 subunit. (1785 aa)
ncs-1Neuronal calcium sensor 1; Neuronal calcium sensor, regulator of G protein-coupled receptor phosphorylation in a calcium dependent manner. Can substitute for calmodulin and directly activate PDE, NO synthase, and calcineurin. Regulates associative learning and memory in a calcium dependent manner. (191 aa)
egl-19Voltage-dependent L-type calcium channel subunit alpha; Voltage-sensitive calcium channels (VSCC) mediate the entry of calcium ions into excitable cells and are also involved in a variety of calcium-dependent processes, including muscle contraction, hormone or neurotransmitter release, gene expression, cell motility, cell division and cell death; Belongs to the calcium channel alpha-1 subunit (TC 1.A.1.11) family. (1877 aa)
cca-1Voltage-dependent T-type calcium channel subunit alpha; Voltage-sensitive calcium channels (VSCC) mediate the entry of calcium ions into excitable cells and are also involved in a variety of calcium-dependent processes, including muscle contraction, hormone or neurotransmitter release, gene expression, cell motility, cell division and cell death. This channel gives rise to T-type calcium currents. T-type calcium channels belong to the "low-voltage activated (LVA)" group and are strongly blocked by nickel and mibefradil. A particularity of this type of channels is an opening at quite ne [...] (1885 aa)
cav-2Caveolin-2; May act as a scaffolding protein within caveolar membranes. Interacts directly with G-protein alpha subunits and can regulate their activity. Thought to have a role in the uptake of lipids and proteins in the intestinal cells; operates in the apical uptake of lipid markers and trafficking of yolk proteins. Affects fecundity and egg laying. Belongs to the caveolin family. (351 aa)
tax-2Cyclic nucleotide-binding domain-containing protein. (800 aa)
gcy-7Receptor-type guanylate cyclase gcy-7; Guanylate cyclase involved in the production of the second messenger cGMP (By similarity). Unlike other guanylate cyclases expressed in ASE neurons, may not play a role in chemotaxis responses toward salt ions in ASEL (ASE left) sensory neurons. (1111 aa)
egl-4cGMP-dependent protein kinase egl-4; Promotes chemoreceptor gene expression in response to increased cGMP levels by antagonizing the gene repression functions of the class II HDAC hda-4 and the mef-2 transcription factor. Regulates gene expression via recruitment of a histone deacetylase complex containing hda-2, saeg-1 and saeg-2. Represses body size and lifespan through the dbl-1 and insulin pathways, respectively. May also signal through daf-3 and/or daf-5. Role in egg-laying, dauer formation and motility. Regulates behavioral responses to various chemosensory stimuli in sensory neu [...] (783 aa)
unc-2EF-hand domain-containing protein. (2171 aa)
cav-1Caveolin-1; May act as a scaffolding protein within caveolar membranes. Interacts directly with G-protein alpha subunits and can functionally regulate their activity. (235 aa)
gcy-14Receptor-type guanylate cyclase gcy-14; Guanylate cyclase involved in the production of the second messenger cGMP (By similarity). Regulates chemotaxis responses toward Na(1+) and Li(1+) salt ions and alkaline pH in ASE left (ASEL) sensory neuron. Directly senses environmental alkalinity in ASEL neuron which probably leads to the activation of cGMP-gated cation channel tax2/tax4. (1111 aa)
tax-4Cyclic nucleotide-gated cation channel; Required for normal thermosensation and chemosensation sensory behavior. Required, downstream of receptor- type guanylate cyclase gcy-9, for CO2-mediated responses in BAG neurons. Required, downstream of receptor-type guanylate cyclase gcy-14, for alkaline pH-mediated responses in ASE-left (ASEL) neurons. Involved in the development of ASJ sensory neuron axon during late larval stages and in the maintenance of normal axon morphology in the adult. Regulates dauer formation. Required for the calcium flux to the cytoplasm in the ASJ sensory neurons [...] (733 aa)
unc-13Phorbol ester/diacylglycerol-binding protein unc-13; May form part of a signal transduction pathway, transducing the signal from diacylglycerol to effector functions. One such function could be the release of neurotransmitter from neurons. Probably by regulating neuronal transmission downstream of lin-3 and receptor lin-23 and phospholipase plc-3 and upstream of innexin unc-7 and egl-4/PKG in ALA neurons, involved in the decrease in pharyngeal pumping during the quiescent state that precedes each larval molt. (2155 aa)
unc-31Calcium-dependent secretion activator; Calcium-binding protein involved in exocytosis of vesicles filled with neurotransmitters and neuropeptides. Probably acts upstream of fusion in the biogenesis or maintenance of mature secretory vesicles. May specifically mediate the Ca(2+)-dependent exocytosis of large dense-core vesicles (DCVs) and other dense-core vesicles (By similarity). Specifically required to activate the neuronal G-alpha pathway. Functions with G-alpha proteins from the same motor neurons to regulate locomotion. Involved in regulating entry into quiescence triggered by sat [...] (1401 aa)
