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.

MDM1Structural protein MDM1; PtdIns-3-P binding protein that tethers the ER to vacuoles at NVJs; anchored in the ER membrane at nucleus-vacuole junctions and binds phosphatidylinositol 3-phosphate (PtdIns-3-P) in the vacuolar membrane via its Phox homology (PX) domain; expressed predominantly in late G1 to early S phase of the cell cycle; mutation affects nuclear and mitochondrial transmission to daughter buds; similar to 4 human genes, one of which (SNX14) is associated with neurological disease. (1127 aa)    
Predicted Functional Partners:
NVJ3
Uncharacterized protein YDR179W-A; Protein with a potential role in tethering ER and vacuoles; localizes to nucleus-vacuole junctions in an Mdm1p-dependent manner; contains a lipid-binding PXA domain.
   
 
 0.994
NVJ1
Nucleus-vacuole junction protein 1; Nuclear envelope protein; anchored to the nuclear inner membrane, that interacts with the vacuolar membrane protein Vac8p to promote formation of nucleus-vacuole junctions during piecemeal microautophagy of the nucleus (PMN).
    
 
 0.933
YPR097W
Protein that contains a PX domain and binds phosphoinositides; the authentic, non-tagged protein is detected in highly purified mitochondria in high-throughput studies; PX stands for Phox homology.
   
  
 0.885
NVJ2
Uncharacterized PH domain-containing protein YPR091C; Lipid-binding ER protein, enriched at nucleus-vacuolar junctions (NVJ); may be involved in sterol metabolism or signaling at the NVJ; contains a synaptotagmin-like-mitochondrial-lipid binding protein (SMP) domain; binds phosphatidylinositols and other lipids in a large-scale study; may interact with ribosomes, based on co-purification experiments.
   
 
 0.819
RAX1
Protein involved in bud site selection during bipolar budding; localization requires Rax2p; has similarity to members of the insulin-related peptide superfamily.
   
  
 0.807
LRO1
Acyltransferase that catalyzes diacylglycerol esterification; one of several acyltransferases that contribute to triglyceride synthesis; Lro1p and Dga1p can O-acylate ceramides; putative homolog of human lecithin cholesterol acyltransferase.
   
 
 0.699
DGA1
Diacylglycerol O-acyltransferase 1; Diacylglycerol acyltransferase; catalyzes the terminal step of triacylglycerol (TAG) formation, acylates diacylglycerol using acyl-CoA as an acyl donor; Lro1p and Dga1p can O-acylate ceramides; localized to lipid particles.
    
 
 0.673
SST2
Protein SST2; GTPase-activating protein for Gpa1p; regulates desensitization to alpha factor pheromone; also required to prevent receptor-independent signaling of the mating pathway; member of the RGS (regulator of G-protein signaling) family.
   
  
 0.668
VAC8
Vacuolar protein 8; Phosphorylated and palmitoylated vacuolar membrane protein; interacts with Atg13p, required for the cytoplasm-to-vacuole targeting (Cvt) pathway; interacts with Nvj1p to form nucleus-vacuole junctions.
   
  
 0.656
OSW5
Outer spore wall protein 5; Protein of unknown function with possible role in spore wall assembly; predicted to contain an N-terminal transmembrane domain; osw5 null mutant spores exhibit increased spore wall permeability and sensitivity to beta-glucanase digestion; Belongs to the OSW5 family.
