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

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.
   
 
 0.935
RAX1
Protein involved in bud site selection during bipolar budding; localization requires Rax2p; has similarity to members of the insulin-related peptide superfamily.
   
  
 0.918
RGS2
Negative regulator of glucose-induced cAMP signaling; directly activates the GTPase activity of the heterotrimeric G protein alpha subunit Gpa2p.
      
 0.889
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).
      
 0.871
GPA2
Guanine nucleotide-binding protein alpha-2 subunit; Nucleotide binding alpha subunit of the heterotrimeric G protein; interacts with the receptor Gpr1p, has signaling role in response to nutrients; required for the recruitment of Ras-GTP at the plasma membrane and in the nucleus.
   
  
 0.812
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.
      
 0.810
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.
      
 0.801
MMM1
Maintenance of mitochondrial morphology protein 1; ER integral membrane protein, ERMES complex subunit; ERMES links the ER to mitochondria and may promote inter-organellar calcium and phospholipid exchange as well as coordinating mitochondrial DNA replication and growth; required for mitophagy; ERMES complex is often co-localized with peroxisomes and with concentrated areas of pyruvate dehydrogenase; Belongs to the MMM1 family.
      
 0.640
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.
   
 
 0.629
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.
