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

KEX1Pheromone-processing carboxypeptidase KEX1; Cell death protease essential for hypochlorite-induced apoptosis; involved in the processing of killer toxin and alpha factor precursor; cleaves Lys and Arg residues from the C-terminus of peptides and proteins. (729 aa)    
Predicted Functional Partners:
KEX2
Kexin, a subtilisin-like protease (proprotein convertase); a calcium-dependent serine protease involved in the activation of proproteins of the secretory pathway; Belongs to the peptidase S8 family. Furin subfamily.
   
 
 0.977
STE13
Dipeptidyl aminopeptidase; Golgi integral membrane protein that cleaves on the carboxyl side of repeating -X-Ala- sequences, required for maturation of alpha factor, transcription is induced by a-factor.
   
  
 0.927
NMA111
Serine protease and general molecular chaperone; involved in response to heat stress and promotion of apoptosis; may contribute to lipid homeostasis; sequence similarity to the mammalian Omi/HtrA2 family of serine proteases; Belongs to the peptidase S1C family.
   
  
 0.842
KRE1
Cell wall glycoprotein involved in beta-glucan assembly; serves as a K1 killer toxin membrane receptor.
    
 
 0.840
MCA1
Metacaspase-1; Ca2+-dependent cysteine protease; may cleave specific substrates during the stress response; regulates apoptosis upon H2O2 treatment; required for clearance of insoluble protein aggregates during normal growth; implicated in cell cycle dynamics and lifespan extension; undergoes autocatalytic processing; similar to mammalian metacaspases, but exists as a monomer due to an extra pair of anti-parallel beta-strands that block potential dimerization; Belongs to the peptidase C14B family.
      
 0.758
PEP4
Saccharopepsin; Vacuolar aspartyl protease (proteinase A); required for posttranslational precursor maturation of vacuolar proteinases; important for protein turnover after oxidative damage; plays a protective role in acetic acid induced apoptosis; synthesized as a zymogen, self-activates.
   
 
 0.710
OST3
Dolichyl-diphosphooligosaccharide--protein glycosyltransferase subunit 3; Gamma subunit of the oligosaccharyltransferase complex of the ER lumen; complex catalyzes asparagine-linked glycosylation of newly synthesized proteins; Ost3p is important for N-glycosylation of a subset of proteins; Belongs to the OST3/OST6 family.
    
 
 0.705
CHS3
Chitin synthase III; catalyzes the transfer of N-acetylglucosamine (GlcNAc) to chitin; required for synthesis of the majority of cell wall chitin, the chitin ring during bud emergence, and spore wall chitosan; contains overlapping di-leucine and di-acidic signals that mediate, respectively, intracellular trafficking by AP-1 and trafficking to plasma membrane by exomer complex; requires AP-3 complex for its intracellular retention.
    
 
 0.686
SHO1
High osmolarity signaling protein SHO1; Transmembrane osmosensor for filamentous growth and HOG pathways; involved in activation of the Cdc42p- and MAP kinase-dependent filamentous growth pathway and the high-osmolarity glycerol (HOG) response pathway; phosphorylated by Hog1p; interacts with Pbs2p, Msb2p, Hkr1p, and Ste11p.
    
   0.678
PEP8
Carboxypeptidase Y-deficient protein 8; Vacuolar protein component of the retromer; forms part of the multimeric membrane-associated retromer complex involved in vacuolar protein sorting along with Vps35p, Vps29p, Vps17p, and Vps5p; essential for endosome-to-Golgi retrograde protein transport; interacts with Ypt7p; protein abundance increases in response to DNA replication stress; Belongs to the VPS26 family.
