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:
fat-5Delta(9)-fatty-acid desaturase fat-5; Delta(9)-fatty-acid desaturase that acts preferentially on palmitoyl-CoA. Also acts on pentadecanoyl-coA and myristoyl-CoA. (333 aa)
mig-1Uncharacterized protein; Belongs to the G-protein coupled receptor Fz/Smo family. (529 aa)
daf-2Insulin-like receptor subunit alpha; Insulin receptor-like tyrosine kinase which regulates metabolism, controls longevity and prevents developmental arrest at the dauer stage. Binding of INS family members may either stimulate, or antagonize, association of the receptor with downstream mediators such as pdk-1 and age-1. Required for germline progenitor proliferation during larval development. Required for the response to environmental stimuli such as food, pheromone, and temperature. Negatively regulates resistance to UV and oxidative stress. Role in immune function and pathogen resist [...] (1928 aa)
daf-22Non-specific lipid-transfer protein-like 2; Catalyzes the thiolytic cleavage of 3-ketoacyl-CoA with 8-16 carbon residues in the acyl group using a ping-pong mechanism whereby binding to 3-ketooctanoyl-CoA results in the release of acetyl-CoA and the subsequent addition of CoA produces 3-ketohexanohyl-CoA. Involved in the biosynthesis of the dauer pheromone by providing short chains of fatty acid that are attached to the ascarylose sugars of the pheromone. Belongs to the thiolase-like superfamily. Thiolase family. (412 aa)
ins-4Probable insulin-like peptide beta-type 1; Probable insulin-like peptide which negatively regulates synapse development at the neuromuscular junctions. Probably acts as a daf-2/InsR agonist ligand to prevent dauer formation under optimal environmental conditions. (106 aa)
ins-5Putative insulin-like peptide beta-type 6. (100 aa)
ins-6Probable insulin-like peptide beta-type 5; Probable insulin-like peptide which negatively regulates synapse development at the neuromuscular junctions. Probably acts as a daf-2/InsR agonist ligand to prevent dauer formation under optimal environmental conditions. Acts on AWC sensory neurons to regulate high salt chemotaxis responses. (112 aa)
age-1Phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase age-1; Phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase homolog that regulates longevity and diapause. Promotes cell survival during embryonic development by recruiting akt-1/2 to the plasma membrane through the production of PtdIns(3,4,5)P3. Could function in the development or neuroendocrine signaling of the dauer pathway. Mediates susceptibility to enteropathogenic E.coli infection. May negatively regulate AYI interneuron neurite outgrowth. Plays a role in aversive olfactory learning when an odor is associated with food deprivation. Regulates this process by promoting the [...] (1182 aa)
pmp-3Peroxisomal Membrane Protein related. (688 aa)
maoc-1MAO-C-like dehydratase domain. (298 aa)
acox-1.1Acyl-coenzyme A oxidase; Belongs to the acyl-CoA oxidase family. (674 aa)
fat-7Delta(9)-fatty-acid desaturase fat-7; Delta(9)-fatty-acid desaturase that acts preferentially on stearoyl-CoA. Also acts on vaccenyl-coA, heptadecanyol-CoA, and palmitoyl-CoA. (338 aa)
fasn-1Carrier domain-containing protein. (2613 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)
nhr-49Nuclear hormone receptor family member nhr-49; Orphan nuclear receptor. Regulates expression of lipid desaturase, fat-7 ; Belongs to the nuclear hormone receptor family. (501 aa)
cpt-2Calponin-homology (CH) domain-containing protein. (646 aa)
mdt-15Mediator of RNA polymerase II transcription subunit 15; Component of the Mediator complex, a coactivator involved in regulated gene transcription of nearly all RNA polymerase II-dependent genes. Mediator functions as a bridge to convey information from gene- specific regulatory proteins to the basal RNA polymerase II transcription machinery. Mediator is recruited to promoters by direct interactions with regulatory proteins and serves as a scaffold for the assembly of a functional preinitiation complex with RNA polymerase II and the general transcription factors (By similarity). Require [...] (780 aa)
daf-16Forkhead box protein O; Forkhead-type transcription factor. Binds to the promoters of genes that contain the daf-16 binding element (DBE), TTGTTTAC, in their regulatory region. Functions in the Insulin/IGF-1-like signaling (IIS) mediated pathway which affects lipogenesis, lifespan, starvation survival, heat shock and oxidative stress responses, and dauer formation. Longevity signaling predominantly arises from expression in the intestine. Daf-16 transcriptional activity is negatively regulated by cytoplasmic sequestration by association with ftt-2. Inhibition is required for the carbon [...] (541 aa)
aak-25'-AMP-activated protein kinase catalytic subunit alpha-2; Acts as a sensor that couples lifespan to information about energy levels and insulin-like signals. Role in motility and response to oxidative stress. Involved in the establishment of germline stem cell (GSC) quiescence during dauer development. Plays a role in axon regrowth after axotomy in PLM neurons. Plays a role in the maintenance of glycogen stores which are necessary for resistance to hyperosmotic stress. Plays a role in the regulation of flp-7 secretion from ASI neurons. Keeps the CREB-regulated transcription coactivato [...] (626 aa)
