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:
nSybNeuronal synaptobrevin, isoform J; Neuronal Synaptobrevin (nSyb) encodes a SNAP receptor involved in vesicle fusion. (206 aa)
Gad1Glutamic acid decarboxylase 1 (Gad1) encodes an essential, nervous system-specific glutamic acid decarboxylase, which is the synthetic enzyme for the major inhibitory neurotransmitter gamma-Aminobutyric acid (GABA). It is required for a multitude of physiological functions and adult behaviors dependent on GABA, including sleep, memory, circadian rhythms and egg hatching; Belongs to the group II decarboxylase family. (510 aa)
Grasp65Grasp65 (Grasp65) encodes a myristoylated Golgi protein that binds the product of GM130 and has been shown to mediate the Golgi bypass of transmembrane proteins. (460 aa)
Syt1Synaptotagmin 1; May have a regulatory role in the membrane interactions during trafficking of synaptic vesicles at the active zone of the synapse. It binds acidic phospholipids with a specificity that requires the presence of both an acidic head group and a diacyl backbone. (474 aa)
Dcr-2Dicer-2, isoform A; Dicer-2 (Dcr-2) encodes a member of the RNase III family of double-stranded RNA-specific endonucleases. It acts in the RNAi pathway by cutting long dsRNA into siRNAs. It helps defend flies against viral infection, particularly RNA viruses. It also processes long, partially double-stranded endogenous transcripts (hairpin RNAs) into endo-siRNAs. (1722 aa)
PlexAPlexin A (PlexA) encodes a transmembrane receptor for Semaphorin ligands encoded by Sema1a and Sema1b. The intracellular region of this receptor has GTPase activating protein (GAP) activity on Ras/Rap small GTPases. The signaling by the product of PlexA alters actin, microtubules and cell adhesion in developmental processes such as axon guidance. (1945 aa)
ChATCholine O-acetyltransferase 13 kDa chain; Choline acetyltransferase (ChAT) encodes a protein that catalyzes the biosynthesis of the neurotransmitter acetylcholine. It is considered to be a specific marker for cholinergic neurons. (721 aa)
CadNNeural-cadherin; Cadherins are calcium-dependent cell adhesion proteins. They preferentially interact with themselves in a homophilic manner in connecting cells; cadherins may thus contribute to the sorting of heterogeneous cell types. May associate with arm neural isoform and participate in the transmission of developmental information. (3101 aa)
SybSynaptobrevin; Unknown, but synaptobrevins are presumed to be involved in targeting and fusion of synaptic vesicles with the presynaptic membrane as well as in neurotransmitter release. (152 aa)
brpBruchpilot, isoform J; Bruchpilot (brp) encodes a cytoskeletal protein critical for structural integrity of electron-dense projection (T-bar) at pre-active zones. It contributes to Ca[2+] channel clustering, size regulation of the synaptic vesicle readily releaseable pool and anesthesia-resistant memory formation. (2238 aa)
PlexBPlexin-B; Involved in peripheral and central nervous system axon guidance. Acts as a receptor for Sema-2a and seems to transduce signal by suppressing Rac activity and enhancing Rho activity. Belongs to the plexin family. (2051 aa)
sideSidestep, isoform C; Sidestep (side) encodes a transmembrane protein of the immunoglobulin superfamily that is expressed in a defined spatiotemporal pattern in glial cells, sensory neurons and muscles. It functions as an attractive guidance cue to guide motor axons to their target regions. (986 aa)
Sema1aSemaphorin-1A; Semaphorin 1a (Sema1a) encodes a transmembrane protein belonging to the semaphorin protein family. It is a repulsive axon guidance cue, signaling through direct interactions with the receptor encoded by PlexA, and also functions as a receptor to regulate dendrite targeting and axon guidance. Secreted semaphorins encoded by Sema2a and Sema2b can act as the product of Sema1a ligands. (1131 aa)
Sema2bSemaphorin 2b (Sema2b) encodes a member of the Semaphorins family, which are membrane and secreted short-range signaling proteins. The product of Sema2b contributes to the regulation of axon and dendrite guidance as well as cell-matrix adhesion. (824 aa)
VGlutVesicular glutamate transporter, isoform A. (632 aa)
AlkAnaplastic lymphoma kinase (Alk) encodes a protein that employs Ras/ERK and PI3K signalling pathways to function in multiple contexts including embryonic visceral muscle development, growth and organ size regulation, retinal axon targeting, modulation of neuromuscular transmission as well as sleep regulation and olfactory learning. Its ligand is the secreted protein encoded by jeb. (1701 aa)
RdlGamma-aminobutyric acid receptor subunit beta; Resistant to dieldrin (Rdl) encodes a widely-expressed ligand-gated chloride channel which mediates the fast inhibitory effects of GABA. It has been shown to have roles in the circuits underlying visual processing, odor coding, learning and memory, sleep and courtship behavior. (608 aa)
