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

RGS2Negative regulator of glucose-induced cAMP signaling; directly activates the GTPase activity of the heterotrimeric G protein alpha subunit Gpa2p. (309 aa)    
Predicted Functional Partners:
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.
   
 0.997
RAX1
Protein involved in bud site selection during bipolar budding; localization requires Rax2p; has similarity to members of the insulin-related peptide superfamily.
      
 0.963
GPA1
Guanine nucleotide-binding protein alpha-1 subunit; Subunit of the G protein involved in pheromone response; GTP-binding alpha subunit of the heterotrimeric G protein; negatively regulates the mating pathway by sequestering G(beta)gamma and by triggering an adaptive response; activates Vps34p at the endosome; protein abundance increases in response to DNA replication stress.
    
 0.955
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.
     
 0.945
MDM1
Structural 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.
      
 0.889
STE4
G protein beta subunit; forms a dimer with Ste18p to activate mating signaling pathway, forms heterotrimer with Gpa1p and Ste18p to dampen signaling; pheromone-induced phosphorylation plays critical role in chemotropism; may recruit Rho1p to polarized growth site during mating; contains WD40 repeats.
   
 
 0.812
GPR1
Plasma membrane G protein coupled receptor (GPCR); interacts with the heterotrimeric G protein alpha subunit, Gpa2p, and with Plc1p; sensor that integrates nutritional signals with the modulation of cell fate via PKA and cAMP synthesis.
   
 
 0.752
CHS7
Chitin synthase export chaperone; Protein of unknown function; may be involved in chitin biosynthesis by regulation of Chs3p export from the ER; relocalizes from bud neck to ER upon DNA replication stress.
    
 
 0.717
CYR1
Adenylate cyclase; required for cAMP production and cAMP-dependent protein kinase signaling; the cAMP pathway controls a variety of cellular processes, including metabolism, cell cycle, stress response, stationary phase, and sporulation.
    
 
 0.681
YGK3
Glycogen synthase kinase-3 homolog YGK3; Protein kinase related to mammalian GSK-3 glycogen synthase kinases; GSK-3 homologs (Mck1p, Rim11p, Mrk1p, Ygk3p) are involved in control of Msn2p-dependent transcription of stress responsive genes and in protein degradation; YGK3 has a paralog, MCK1, that arose from the whole genome duplication.
