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:
B-H1Homeobox protein B-H1; B-H1 and B-H2 are regulated by members of the wg signaling pathway; wg and dpp. B-H1 and B-H2 are coexpressed and functionally required in R1 and R6 receptor cells and primary pigment cells for normal eye development. Coexpression is also required for the fate determination of external sensory organs, formation of notal microchaetae, formation of presutural macrochaetae, antennal development and for distal leg morphogenesis; segmentation and specification of tarsal segments 3-5. Belongs to the Antp homeobox family. (544 aa)
Six4Homeobox protein SIX4; Six4 (Six4) encodes a homeodomain-containing transcription factor required for mesodermal patterning to form the embryonic gonad. (392 aa)
atoProtein atonal; Developmental protein involved in neurogenesis. Required for the formation of chordotonal organs and photoreceptors. Seems to bind to E boxes. Specifically required for the photoreceptor R8 selection. (312 aa)
HoHeme oxygenase; Heme oxygenase cleaves the heme ring at the alpha methene bridge to form biliverdin. Biliverdin is subsequently converted to bilirubin by biliverdin reductase. (296 aa)
VAChTVesicular acetylcholine transporter (VAChT) encodes a vesicular transport protein necessary for packaging the neurotransmitter acetylcholine into synaptic vesicles; Belongs to the major facilitator superfamily. Vesicular transporter family. (578 aa)
VGATVesicular GABA Transporter (VGAT) encodes an essential transporter that is responsible for packaging the neurotransmitter GABA into synaptic vesicles. (549 aa)
VmatVesicular monoamine transporter (Vmat) encodes a protein responsible for packaging the neurotransmitters dopamine, serotonin and octopamine into secretory vesicles. (646 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)
OptixOptix (Optix) encodes a homeobox containing DNA binding protein and a member of the SIX class of proteins. It functions as a repressor via interaction with the transcriptional co-repressor encoded by gro. It is involved in eye formation and morphogenetic furrow movement. (492 aa)
ribRibbon, isoform C; Ribbon (rib) encodes a nuclear BTB-domain protein, expressed in most embryonic cells. It is required for development of the salivary gland and trachea, as well as for dorsal closure. It regulates both growth and differentiation of salivary gland cells. (680 aa)
MsR2Myosuppressin receptor 2 (MsR2) encodes a G protein coupled receptor activated by the product of Ms (TDVDHVFLRFamide). It elevates neurotransmitter release in motor neurons and aids larval escape responses to light. (647 aa)
VGlutVesicular glutamate transporter, isoform A. (632 aa)
nSybNeuronal synaptobrevin, isoform J; Neuronal Synaptobrevin (nSyb) encodes a SNAP receptor involved in vesicle fusion. (206 aa)
mGluRMetabotropic glutamate receptor; G-protein coupled receptor for glutamate. Ligand binding causes a conformation change that triggers signaling via guanine nucleotide-binding proteins (G proteins) and modulates the activity of down-stream effectors. (976 aa)
unc-4Homeobox protein unc-4; Unc-4 (unc-4) encodes a homeodomain transcription factor expressed in distinct subsets of neurons in the embryonic and post-embryonic CNS. It regulates neuronal development and differentiation at least in part via repressing the expression of HGTX. It contributes to neuronal specification and differentiation, specifically axonal pathfinding and axongenesis. (588 aa)
Abd-BHomeobox protein abdominal-B; Abdominal B (Abd-B) is one of the three hox genes of the bithorax complex. The product of Abd-B specifies the identity of the posterior abdominal segments, the external genitalia and the gonads. It is also involved in regulating the post-mating-response. (493 aa)
