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:
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)
NrgNeuroglian; The long isoform may play a role in neural and glial cell adhesion in the developing embryo. The short isoform may be a more general cell adhesion molecule involved in other tissues and imaginal disk morphogenesis. Vital for embryonic development. Essential for septate junctions. Septate junctions, which are the equivalent of vertebrates tight junctions, are characterized by regular arrays of transverse structures that span the intermembrane space and form a physical barrier to diffusion. Required for the blood-brain barrier formation. (1309 aa)
elavProtein elav; Required for the proper development and maintenance of neurons presumably by affecting RNA metabolism. Belongs to the RRM elav family. (483 aa)
Dop1R1Dopamine receptor 1; Receptor for dopamine. The activity of this receptor is mediated by G proteins which activate adenylyl cyclase. Might be involved in the processing of visual information and/or visual learning. Important for Pavlovian conditioning: required in the mushroom body as a receptor conveying unconditional stimuli information, has a role in memory formation for aversive and appetitive learning. Sleep-deprivation-induced impairments in learning can be partially explained through alterations in dopamine signaling, Dop1R1 expression levels are reduced; sleep may have a role i [...] (560 aa)
TyrRTyramine receptor (TyrR) encodes a Tyramine 2 class receptor. When heterologously expressed it shows a very high specificity for the release of intercellular calcium by tyramine; Belongs to the G-protein coupled receptor 1 family. (631 aa)
TyrRIITyramine receptor II (TyrRII) encodes a Tyramine 3 class receptor. When heterologously expressed it shows a high affinity for both tyramine and phenylethylamine, and a lower affinity for a range of other related biogenic amines, in both the inhibition of adenylyl cyclase activity and in the release of calcium from internal stores; Belongs to the G-protein coupled receptor 1 family. (586 aa)
jebJelly belly (jeb) encodes a secreted, low-density lipoprotein (LDL) repeat containing protein that functions as signalling ligand for the product of Alk. Binding of the ligand to its receptor activates intracellular Ras/ERK and PI3K signalling pathways. The roles of the product of jeb include embryonic visceral muscle development, growth and organ size regulation, retinal axon targeting, modulation of neuromuscular transmission as well as sleep regulation and olfactory learning. (560 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)
nSybNeuronal synaptobrevin, isoform J; Neuronal Synaptobrevin (nSyb) encodes a SNAP receptor involved in vesicle fusion. (206 aa)
VGlutVesicular glutamate transporter, isoform A. (632 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)
Oct-TyrRTyramine/octopamine receptor; Receptor for both octopamine and tyramine, invertebrate neurotransmitters, and neuromodulators. The activity of this receptor is mediated by G proteins which activate adenylyl cyclase. The rank order of potency for agonists is tyramine > octopamine > dopamine > epinephrine > norepinephrine > serotonin > histamine. For antagonists, the rank order is yohimbine > chlorpromazine > phentolamine > mianserine > cyproheptadine > dihydroergotamine > clonidine > synephrine. Tyramine has a functional role in the olfactory system as a neurotransmitter or a neuromodulator. (601 aa)
repoReversed polarity (repo) encodes a homeodomain transcription factor specifically expressed in glial cells. It is is a direct target of the pan-glial fate determinant encoded by gcm and is required for acquisition of glial fate and subsequent terminal glial differentiation. (612 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)
DopEcRDopamine/Ecdysteroid receptor (DopEcR) encodes a GPCR that shows ligand-biased activation. It can be activated by dopamine to increase cyclic AMP levels and by the insect steroid ecdysone to activate the MAPKinase pathway. It is widely expressed in the nervous system and can modulate a wide variety of complex behaviors including male courtship, locomotion, the response to stressful social interactions and the regulation of appetite. (322 aa)
AttBAttacin-B (AttB) encodes an immune inducible peptide that shows homology to antibacterial peptides having activity against Gram-negative bacteria; Belongs to the attacin/sarcotoxin-2 family. (218 aa)
