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:
Rac1Ras-related protein Rac1; During various developmental processes, regulates changes in cell morphology in response to extracellular signals. During oogenesis, mediates signaling from the tyrosine kinase (RTK) chemoattractant receptors (Egfr and Pvr) to the guidance pathway that control the directional persistent collective migration of the border cell (BC) cluster through the nurse cells to the oocyte. Once activating by Pvr and Egfr, promotes the formation of forward-directed actin protrusions which stabilize the DE- cadherin (shg)-mediated adhesions. In turn, DE-mediated adhesion bet [...] (192 aa)
Cdc42Cdc42 (Cdc42) encodes a GTPase signaling protein that acts as a molecular switch and functions as key regulator of the actin cytoskeleton. It plays a central role in diverse biological processes including actin cytoskeleton organization, mophogenesis, hemocyte migration, cell polarity, and wound repair. (191 aa)
RhoLRas-like GTP-binding protein RhoL; Essential for the maturation of hemocytes. (214 aa)
slprMitogen-activated protein kinase kinase kinase; Activates the JUN N-terminal pathway during dorsal closure. (1155 aa)
bskStress-activated protein kinase JNK; Responds to activation by environmental stress by phosphorylating a number of transcription factors, primarily components of AP-1 such as Jra and also the transcriptional repressor aop, and thus regulates transcriptional activity. Component of the immune response activated by bacterial infection, and is involved in wound healing and in dorsal closure, a morphogenetic movement during embryogenesis. Functions in the systematic response to wounding acting downstream of the Hayan-phenoloxidase PPO1 cascade. Exhibits cytoprotective activity in neuronal c [...] (372 aa)
Ask1Apoptotic signal-regulating kinase 1 (Ask1) encodes a serine/threonine kinase that belongs to the MAPK kinase kinase family. In response to various stresses, it phosphorylates MAPK kinases in JNK and p38 MAPK pathways, inducing cellular stress responses including cell death and immune responses. (1363 aa)
Rho1Ras-like GTP-binding protein Rho1; Has a role in regulating actin cytoskeletal organization: required during early development for proper execution of morphogenetic movements of individual cells and groups of cells important for the formation of the embryonic body plan. Plays a role in regulating dorsal closure during embryogenesis. During axis elongation, required for Rho-kinase Rok planar polarity and adherens junction localization as well as for generating a planar polarized distribution of the actin-binding protein Shrm. During embryogenesis, acts upstream of wash to regulate the d [...] (192 aa)
PEKEukaryotic translation initiation factor 2-alpha kinase; Pancreatic eIF-2alpha kinase (PEK) encodes an endoplasmic reticulum (ER) transmembrane kinase and a component of the integrated stress response. During ER stress the product of PEK phosphorylates the translation initiation factor encoded by eIF2alpha resulting in the inhibition of most cap-dependent translation. This is especially important during the development of secretory tissues and the response to cellular stress; Belongs to the protein kinase superfamily. Ser/Thr protein kinase family. GCN2 subfamily. (1162 aa)
Tak1Mitogen-activated protein kinase kinase kinase 7; Component of a protein kinase signal transduction cascade. Mediator of TGF-beta signal transduction. Responsible for activation of the JNK MAPK pathway (basket, bsk and hemipterous, hep) in response to LPS. Component of the NF-kappa-B pathway; relish-mediated JNK inhibition involves proteasomal degradation of Tak1; certain targets of Relish that are induced during immune responses may facilitate destruction of Tak1 and switch off the JNK cascade. Participates in diverse roles such as control of cell shape and regulation of apoptosis. (678 aa)
wndWallenda (wnd) encodes a kinase in the mixed lineage family of MAP Kinase Kinase Kinases. Its roles include axonal injury signaling (it becomes activated in neurons after axotomy), and in regulation of the structure of presynaptic boutons. (977 aa)
hepDual specificity mitogen-activated protein kinase kinase hemipterous; Required for the epithelial cell sheet movement called dorsal closure (DC), which allows establishment of the dorsal epidermis. Controls the expression in the dorsal epithelium edges of another dorsal closure gene, puckered (puc). Phosphorylates and activates the MAP kinase bsk; bsk signal transduction pathway mediates an immune response and morphogenesis; Belongs to the protein kinase superfamily. STE Ser/Thr protein kinase family. MAP kinase kinase subfamily. (1178 aa)
licLicorne (lic) encodes a serine/threonine kinase that phosphorylates p38 MAP kinases. (334 aa)
MtlMig-2-like (Mtl) encodes a Rho GTPase involved in actin organization regulation. It contributes to multiple actin-mediated processes including dorsal closure, wound healing, cell migration, germ band shortening and salivary gland morphogenesis. (195 aa)
Mekk1Mekk1, isoform B; Mekk1 (Mekk1) encodes a MAP kinase kinase kinase that regulates the stress response. It is required for resistance to several stresses, notably osmotic shock, and for the regulation of the activity of the product of Duox. (1571 aa)
rasInosine-5'-monophosphate dehydrogenase; Catalyzes the conversion of inosine 5'-phosphate (IMP) to xanthosine 5'-phosphate (XMP), the first committed and rate-limiting step in the de novo synthesis of guanine nucleotides, and therefore plays an important role in the regulation of cell growth. (590 aa)
Mkk4MAP kinase kinase 4 (Mkk4) encodes a mitogen activated protein kinase kinase (MAPKK) involved in the Jun kinase (JNK) pathway. It is directly activated by the MAPKKK encoded by Tak1. Mkk4 product roles include activation of intracellular JNK signalling upon the TNF family ligand encoded by egr and regulation of axon stability. (424 aa)
Rac2Ras-related protein Rac2; Involved in integrin alpha-PS3/beta-nu-mediated phagocytosis of Gram-positive S.aureus by hemocytes. (192 aa)
