STRINGSTRING
STRING protein interaction network
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

byr2Protein kinase byr2; Serine/threonine protein kinase involved in conjugation and sporulation. It is thought that it phosphorylates the byr1 protein kinase which itself phosphorylate the spk1 kinase. (659 aa)    
Predicted Functional Partners:
byr1
Protein kinase byr1; Serine/threonine protein kinase involved in conjugation and sporulation. It is thought that it is phosphorylated by the byr2 protein kinase and that it can phosphorylate the spk1 kinase. When bound to bob1, is involved in the regulation of sexual differentiation.
  
0.999
ras1
Ras-like protein 1; Participates in the process of sexual differentiation and the determination of cell shape. Essential for mating and for recognition of the mating pheromone, but not for vegetative growth. Does not regulate the intracellular cAMP level. Regulates two downstream pathways, namely the byr2/byr1/spk1 mitogen-activated protein kinase cascade and the cdc42 small G protein pathway. The former is relevant to mating and sporulation, whereas the latter is relevant to mating, cell growth and cell morphology.
 
 
 
 0.995
wis1
Protein kinase wis1; Dosage-dependent regulator of mitosis with serine/ threonine protein kinase activity. May play a role in the integration of nutritional sensing with the control over entry into mitosis. It may interact with cdc25, wee1 and win1. May activate sty1.
  
0.980
shk1
Serine/threonine-protein kinase shk1/pak1; MAP4K component of the MAPK pathway required for the mating pheromone response. Phosphorylates histone H2B to form H2BS10ph (By similarity). Phosphorylates tea1. Required for skb1-dependent mitotic inhibitory function. Regulates microtubule dynamics and cell polarity. Belongs to the protein kinase superfamily. STE Ser/Thr protein kinase family. STE20 subfamily.
  
 
0.977
ste4
Sexual differentiation protein ste4; Essential for mating and meiosis.
    
 
 0.974
gpa1
Guanine nucleotide-binding protein alpha-1 subunit; Implicated in the mating and sporulation pathway. Probably coupled to mating-factor receptors. May act in concert with Ras1; Belongs to the G-alpha family. G(q) subfamily.
    
 
 0.929
cdc42
Cell division control protein 42 homolog; Involved in development of cell polarity during the cell division cycle; Belongs to the small GTPase superfamily. Rho family. CDC42 subfamily.
   
 
 0.909
ste11
Transcription factor ste11; Key transcription factor for sexual development. Activates the transcription of the matp, matm, mei2, mfm, ste6 and rgs1 genes. Binds specifically to a DNA fragment carrying a 10-base motif 5'- TTCTTTGTTY-3'.
   
 
 0.898
spk1
Mitogen-activated protein kinase spk1; Involved in mating signal transduction pathway.
  
 
0.891
scd1
Rho guanine nucleotide exchange factor scd1; Required for mating and morphogenesis. May contain a cryptic binding site for cdc42 that is enhanced by binding Ras. Interacts directly with scd2. Promotes the exchange of cdc42-bound GDP by GTP. Involved in septation and stimulates the elongation of conjugation tubes.
