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

Score
STE23A-factor-processing enzyme; Metalloprotease; involved in N-terminal processing of pro-a-factor to mature form; expressed in both haploids and diploids; one of two yeast homologs of human insulin-degrading enzyme (hIDE); homolog Axl1p is also involved in processing of pro-a-factor; Belongs to the peptidase M16 family. (1027 aa)    
Predicted Functional Partners:
STE24
CAAX prenyl protease 1; Highly conserved zinc metalloprotease; functions in two steps of a-factor maturation, C-terminal CAAX proteolysis and the first step of N-terminal proteolytic processing; cleaves both isoprenylated and non-prenylated oligopeptides; contains multiple transmembrane spans; human homolog ZMPSTE24 implicated in mandibuloacral dysplasia (MAD), and can complement yeast null mutant.
   
  
 0.913
CYM1
Mitochondrial presequence protease; Lysine-specific metalloprotease of the pitrilysin family; metalloprotease of the intermembrane space; degrades proteins and presequence peptides cleaved from imported proteins; required for normal mitochondrial morphology.
   
 
 0.911
RCE1
Type II CAAX prenyl protease; involved in the proteolysis and maturation of Ras and the a-factor mating pheromone; Belongs to the peptidase U48 family.
      
 0.836
RPS31
Fusion protein cleaved to yield ribosomal protein S31 and ubiquitin; ubiquitin may facilitate assembly of the ribosomal protein into ribosomes; interacts genetically with translation factor eIF2B; homologous to mammalian ribosomal protein S27A, no bacterial homolog.
    
   0.802
STE14
Protein-S-isoprenylcysteine O-methyltransferase; Farnesyl cysteine-carboxyl methyltransferase; mediates the carboxyl methylation step during C-terminal CAAX motif processing of a-factor and RAS proteins in the endoplasmic reticulum, localizes to the ER membrane; Belongs to the class VI-like SAM-binding methyltransferase superfamily. Isoprenylcysteine carboxyl methyltransferase family.
      
 0.776
UBP12
Ubiquitin carboxyl-terminal hydrolase 12; Ubiquitin-specific protease; cleaves ubiquitin from ubiquitinated proteins; present in the nucleus and cytoplasm; Belongs to the peptidase C19 family.
 
 
    0.705
PXP1
Putative 2-hydroxyacyl-CoA lyase; Peroxisomal matrix protein; well-conserved in fungi; contains tripartite homology domain of thiamine pyrophosphate (TPP) enzymes; targeted to peroxisomes by Pex5p; contains low sequence identity with Pdc1p; mRNA identified as translated by ribosome profiling data.
     
 0.695
MSN2
Zinc finger protein MSN2; Stress-responsive transcriptional activator; activated in stochastic pulses of nuclear localization in response to various stress conditions; binds DNA at stress response elements of responsive genes; relative distribution to nucleus increases upon DNA replication stress.
   
   0.683
RAM2
Protein farnesyltransferase/geranylgeranyltransferase type-1 subunit alpha; Alpha subunit of farnesyltransferase and geranylgeranyltransferase-I; farnesyltransferase (Ram2p-Ram1p heterodimer) catalyzes the addition of 15-carbon isoprenoid farnesyl to substrate proteins containing a CAAX consensus motif; type I geranylgeranyltransferase (Ram2p-Cdc43p heterodimer) catalyzes the addition of the 20-carbon isoprenoid geranylgeranyl to substrate proteins containing a CaaL consensus motif; required for membrane localization of Ras proteins and a-factor.
      
 0.678
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.
