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 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.

let-418Protein let-418; Part of a NuRD (Nucleosome Remodeling and Deacetylase) complex which is implicated in the synMuv B pathway that negatively regulates specification of vulval cell fate. This negative regulation is thought to be mediated via interaction with the promoter of lin-39, a key regulator in vulva development, and is dependent on the presence lin-1. Contributes to negative regulation of lag-2 which is expressed in the gut during larval development. Has a broad role in development. In association with akir-1, plays a role in regulating the transcription of antimicrobial peptide g [...] (1829 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)
his-6Histone H3. (136 aa)
mes-3Polycomb protein mes-3; Component of a Polycomb group (PcG) complex. PcG proteins act by forming multiprotein complexes, which are required to maintain the transcriptionally repressive state of homeotic genes throughout development. PcG proteins are not required to initiate repression, but to maintain it during later stages of development. The mes-2/mes-3/mes- 6 complex may participate in the global inactivation of the X chromosomes in germline cells. The complex may act via methylation of histone H3 'Lys-27', rendering chromatin heritably changed in its expressibility. This complex is [...] (754 aa)
his-58Probable histone H2B 4. (123 aa)
sun-1Sun domain-containing protein 1; Involved in centrosome attachment to the nucleus. Required for zyg-12 localization to the nuclear envelope. Together with pot-1, it is required to anchor telomeres to the nuclear envelope in embryos. (473 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)
mep-1MOG interacting and ectopic P-granules protein 1; Has a broad role in development, specifically in the genetic pathway SynMuvB that negatively regulates specification of the vulval cell fate.
