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.

Your Input:
Or19aOdorant receptor 19a; Odorant receptor which mediates acceptance or avoidance behavior, depending on its substrates. The odorant receptor repertoire encodes a large collection of odor stimuli that vary widely in identity, intensity, and duration. May form a complex with Orco to form odorant-sensing units, providing sensitive and prolonged odorant signaling and calcium permeability. Involved in the preference for citrus fruits for oviposition, especially through the response to valencene, the primary ligand of Or19a. Larvae growing on citrus fruits suffer a reduced risk of parasitism si [...] (387 aa)
Gr5aGustatory receptor 5a for trehalose; Gustatory receptor required for response to the sugar trehalose in taste neurons. Gr5a neurons selectively respond to sugars, in contrast to Gr66a cells which respond to bitter compounds. Flies are attracted to sugars and avoid bitter substances, suggesting that Gr5a neuron activity is sufficient to mediate acceptance behavior. Sugar signal transduction occurs through coupling with G-proteins such as Galpha49B and G-salpha60A. (444 aa)
SPAccessory gland-specific peptide 70A; Male seminal protein which triggers short- and long-term post-mating behavioral responses (PMR) in female Drosophila. Binds initially to sperm where it is later cleaved to release an active peptide within the female reproductive tract. Signals via the sex peptide receptor (SPR) in female flies; may also act via other receptors. Moderates the activity of distinct neuronal circuitries in the female genital tract to promote specific PMRs including: enhanced ovulation, increased egg laying rate, increased feeding/foraging rate, induced antimicrobial pe [...] (55 aa)
Gr68aGustatory receptor 68a; Dsx-dependent essential component of pheromone-driven courtship behavior. Recognizes a female pheromone involved in the second step (tapping step) of the courtship display which is essential for efficient execution of the entire courtship sequence and timely mating. Required for detection of the male sex pheromone CH503 which is transferred from males to females during mating and inhibits courtship behavior by other males. Gr68a-expressing neurons in the male foreleg relay signals to the suboesophageal zone (SEZ) and courtship suppression is mediated by the rele [...] (389 aa)
Or67dOdorant receptor 67d; Plays a role in detection and sensitivity to pheromones and signal transduction of the fatty-acid-derived male pheromone 11-cis vaccenyl acetate (cVA). Acts in concert with Snmp and lush to capture cVA molecules on the surface of Or67d expressing olfactory dendrites and facilitate their transfer to the odorant-receptor Orco complex. Necessary to mediate behavioral responses to cVA by regulating both male and female mating behavior. Activation of Or67d neurons by cVA inhibits courtship of other males, whereas in females their activation promotes receptivity to othe [...] (391 aa)
Or65aOdorant receptor 65a; Odorant receptor which mediates acceptance or avoidance behavior, depending on its substrates. The odorant receptor repertoire encodes a large collection of odor stimuli that vary widely in identity, intensity, and duration. May form a complex with Orco to form odorant-sensing units, providing sensitive and prolonged odorant signaling and calcium permeability. Involved in olfactory communication for modulating aggression through the sensing of the male-specific pheromone 11-cis-vaccenyl acetate (cVA). Although acute exposure to cVA elicites aggression through Or67 [...] (417 aa)
Or83cPutative odorant receptor 83c; Odorant receptor which mediates acceptance or avoidance behavior, depending on its substrates. The odorant receptor repertoire encodes a large collection of odor stimuli that vary widely in identity, intensity, and duration. May form a complex with Orco to form odorant-sensing units, providing sensitive and prolonged odorant signaling and calcium permeability (By similarity). (397 aa)
Gr32aGustatory and pheromone receptor 32a; Gustatory receptor which mediates acceptance or avoidance behavior, depending on its substrates. Required for the response to N,N-Diethyl-meta-toluamide (DEET), the most widely used insect repellent worldwide. Functions as a pheromone receptor for a male inhibitory pheromone and promotes male-male aggression and suppresses male-male courtship. Also promotes preferentially virgin females courting over mated females. Belongs to the insect chemoreceptor superfamily. Gustatory receptor (GR) family. Gr21a subfamily. (461 aa)
Gr33aGustatory and pheromone receptor 33a; Gustatory receptor which mediates acceptance or avoidance behavior, depending on its substrates. Required for sensing all nonvolatile repulsive chemicals, including tastants, pheromones, and especially N,N-Diethyl-meta-toluamide (DEET), the most widely used insect repellent worldwide. Functions also as a pheromone receptor for a male inhibitory pheromone leading to male-male courtship suppression. Belongs to the insect chemoreceptor superfamily. Gustatory receptor (GR) family. Gr66a subfamily. (475 aa)
ppkAmiloride-sensitive Na+ channel; Pickpocket (ppk) encodes an acid-sensing sodium channel from the degenerin/epithelial sodium channel (DEG/ENaC) family. It contributes to mechanical nociception, larval behavior and dendrite morphogenesis. (606 aa)
