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:
Ir8aIonotropic receptor 8a (Ir8a) encodes a member of the Ionotropic Receptor (IR) family of variant ionotropic glutamate receptors. It functions as a co-receptor together with ligand-specific IRs (in a probable heterotetrameric complex) to detect diverse organic acids; Belongs to the glutamate-gated ion channel (TC 1.A.10.1) family. (936 aa)
Ir64aIonotropic receptor 64a (Ir64a) encodes a member of the Ionotropic Receptor (IR) family of variant ionotropic glutamate receptors. It is part of a broad-specificity acid sensor that mediates avoidance behavior. (859 aa)
Gr21aGustatory and odorant receptor 21a; Gustatory and odorant receptor which mediates acceptance or avoidance behavior, depending on its substrates. Gr21a and Gr63a together are sufficient for carbon dioxide detection and avoidance behavior. It is possible that the CO(2) receptors Gr63a and Gr21a activate the TRPC channels through Galpha49B and Plc21C. This innate olfactory avoidance behavior can be inhibited by inhibitory interactions of the odors such as 1-hexanol and 2,3-butanedione with Gr21a and Gr63a. Belongs to the insect chemoreceptor superfamily. Gustatory receptor (GR) family. Gr [...] (447 aa)

Gr21a and Gr63a together are sufficient for carbon dioxide detection and avoidance behavior.

This innate olfactory avoidance behavior can be inhibited by inhibitory interactions of the odors such as 1-hexanol and 2,3-butanedione with Gr21a and Gr63a. (489 aa)
Ir25aIonotropic receptor 25a; Integral part of various neural sensory systems in the antenna that provide the neural basis for the response to environmental changes in temperature (thermosensation), humidity (hygrosensation) and odor detection. Required for odor-evoked electrophysiological responses in multiple neuron classes in the antenna and is likely to function as part of an olfactory receptor complex with Ir76a and Ir76b. Together with Ir21a and Ir93a, mediates the response of the larval dorsal organ cool cells, a trio of cool-responsive neurons, to cooling and is required for cool av [...] (947 aa)
Ir40aIonotropic receptor 40a; Integral part of a neural sensory system in the antenna that provides the neural basis for the response to environmental changes in humidity (hygrosensation). Together with Ir25a and Ir93a, mediates the response of the hygrosensory sacculus neurons to changes in relative humidity and is required for dry detection behavior. Belongs to the glutamate-gated ion channel (TC 1.A.10.1) family. (732 aa)
