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

PRM2Pheromone-regulated protein; predicted to have 4 transmembrane segments and a coiled coil domain; regulated by Ste12p; required for efficient nuclear fusion. (656 aa)    
Predicted Functional Partners:
PRM1
Plasma membrane fusion protein PRM1; Pheromone-regulated multispanning membrane protein; involved in membrane fusion during mating; predicted to have 5 transmembrane segments and a coiled coil domain; localizes to the shmoo tip; regulated by Ste12p.
   
  
 0.853
FIG1
Factor-induced gene 1 protein; Integral membrane protein required for efficient mating; may participate in or regulate the low affinity Ca2+ influx system, which affects intracellular signaling and cell-cell fusion during mating.
   
  
 0.794
KAR4
Karyogamy protein KAR4; Transcription factor required for response to pheromones; also required during meiosis; exists in two forms, a slower-migrating form more abundant during vegetative growth and a faster-migrating form induced by pheromone.
   
  
 0.710
FUS2
Cell fusion regulator; cytoplasmic protein localized to shmoo tip; required for alignment of parental nuclei before nuclear fusion during mating; contains a Dbl-homology domain; binds specifically with activated Cdc42p.
   
  
 0.625
KAR5
Protein required for nuclear membrane fusion during karyogamy; localizes to the membrane with a soluble portion in the endoplasmic reticulum lumen, may form a complex with Jem1p and Kar2p; similar to zebrafish Brambleberry protein; expression of the gene is regulated by pheromone; Belongs to the KAR5 family.
   
  
 0.612
YKL070W
Uncharacterized protein YKL070W; Putative protein of unknown function; expression induced in cells treated with mycotoxins patulin or citrinin; the authentic, non-tagged protein is detected in highly purified mitochondria in high-throughput studies.
   
  
 0.609
CIK1
Spindle pole body-associated protein CIK1; Kinesin-associated protein; required for both karyogamy and mitotic spindle organization, interacts stably and specifically with Kar3p and may function to target this kinesin to a specific cellular role; locus encodes a long and short transcript with differing functions; CIK1 has a paralog, VIK1, that arose from the whole genome duplication.
   
  
 0.552
FIG2
Factor-induced gene 2 protein; Cell wall adhesin, expressed specifically during mating; may be involved in maintenance of cell wall integrity during mating; FIG2 has a paralog, AGA1, that arose from the whole genome duplication.
   
  
 0.547
STE12
Protein STE12; Transcription factor that is activated by a MAPK signaling cascade; activates genes involved in mating or pseudohyphal/invasive growth pathways; cooperates with Tec1p transcription factor to regulate genes specific for invasive growth.
   
  
 0.521
PRM3
Pheromone-regulated membrane protein 3; Protein required for nuclear envelope fusion during karyogamy; pheromone-regulated; peripheral protein of the nuclear membrane; interacts with Kar5p at the spindle pole body.
   
  
 0.520
