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

KEG1Beta-1,6-glucan synthesis-associated protein KEG1; Integral membrane protein of the ER; physically interacts with Kre6p; has a role in the synthesis of beta-1,6-glucan in the cell wall; required for cell viability. (200 aa)    
Predicted Functional Partners:
KRE6
Beta-glucan synthesis-associated protein KRE6; Type II integral membrane protein; required for beta-1,6 glucan biosynthesis; putative beta-glucan synthase; localizes to ER, plasma membrane, sites of polarized growth and secretory vesicles; functionally redundant with Skn1p; KRE6 has a paralog, SKN1, that arose from the whole genome duplication; Belongs to the SKN1/KRE6 family.
   
 
 0.931
ROT1
Protein ROT1; Molecular chaperone involved in protein folding in ER; mutation causes defects in cell wall synthesis and lysis of autophagic bodies, suppresses tor2 mutations, and is synthetically lethal with kar2-1 and with rot2 mutations; involved in N-linked glycosylation and O-mannosylation; transmembrane helix Ser250 is essential for Rot1p to interact with other membrane components and exert its functional role, avoiding exposure of Ser H-bonding group at lipid-exposed surface.
   
 
 0.927
KRE5
Killer toxin-resistance protein 5; Protein required for beta-1,6 glucan biosynthesis; mutations result in aberrant morphology and severe growth defects.
   
 
 0.760
CNE1
Calnexin; integral membrane ER chaperone involved in folding and quality control of glycoproteins; chaperone activity is inhibited by Mpd1p, with which Cne1p interacts; 24% identical to mammalian calnexin; Ca+ binding not yet shown in yeast.
    
 
 0.703
ROT2
Glucosidase II catalytic subunit; required to trim the final glucose in N-linked glycans; required for normal cell wall synthesis; mutations in rot2 suppress tor2 mutations, and are synthetically lethal with rot1 mutations; Belongs to the glycosyl hydrolase 31 family.
    
 
 0.699
EMW1
Essential for maintenance of the cell wall protein 1; Essential conserved protein with a role in cell wall integrity; contains six TPR (tetratricopeptide repeat) domains clustered in the C-terminal region; conditional mutant is suppressed by overexpression of GFA1; protein abundance increases in response to DNA replication stress; Belongs to the TTC27 family.
      
 0.691
SKN1
Protein involved in sphingolipid biosynthesis; type II membrane protein; SKN1 has a paralog, KRE6, that arose from the whole genome duplication.
    
 
 0.669
BIG1
Protein BIG1; Integral membrane protein of the endoplasmic reticulum; required for normal content of cell wall beta-1,6-glucan; Belongs to the BIG1 family.
   
 
 0.631
HLR1
Protein involved in regulation of cell wall composition and integrity; also involved in cell wall response to osmotic stress; overproduction suppresses a lysis sensitive PKC mutation; HLR1 has a paralog, LRE1, that arose from the whole genome duplication.
   
  
 0.599
YHR213W
Putative uncharacterized protein YAR062W; Pseudogenic fragment with similarity to flocculins; YHR213W has a paralog, YAR062W, that arose from a segmental duplication; Belongs to the flocculin family.
      
 0.599
