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:
some 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

NCR1Niemann-Pick type C-related protein 1; Vacuolar membrane protein; transits through the biosynthetic vacuolar protein sorting pathway, involved in sphingolipid metabolism; cells lacking Ncr1p exhibit high levels of long chain bases (LCB), similar to the accumulation of high amounts of lipids observed in patients with Neimann-Pick C, a disease caused by loss-of-function mutations in NPC1, the functional ortholog of Ncr1p (1170 aa)    
Predicted Functional Partners:
HMS1
Probable transcription factor hms1; bHLH protein with similarity to myc-family transcription factors; overexpression confers hyperfilamentous growth and suppresses the pseudohyphal filamentation defect of a diploid mep1 mep2 homozygous null mutant
    
 
 0.986
TYE7
Fungal twist-like factor; Serine-rich protein that contains a bHLH DNA binding motif; binds E-boxes of glycolytic genes and contributes to their activation; may function as a transcriptional activator in Ty1-mediated gene expression; bHLH stands for basic-helix-loop-helix
    
 
 0.986
NPC2
Phosphatidylglycerol/phosphatidylinositol transfer protein; Sterol transport protein and functional homolog of human NPC2/He1; human NPC2 is a cholesterol-binding protein whose deficiency causes Niemann-Pick type C2 disease involving retention of cholesterol in lysosomes; yeast NPC2 can complement mutations in human NPC2; Belongs to the NPC2 family
    
 
 0.928
YPQ2
Putative vacuolar membrane transporter for cationic amino acids; likely contributes to amino acid homeostasis by exporting cationic amino acids from the vacuole; member of the PQ-loop family, with seven transmembrane domains; mutant phenotype is functionally complemented by rat PQLC2 vacuolar transporter; Belongs to the laat-1 family
    
 
 0.816
ISC1
Inositol phosphosphingolipid phospholipase C; mitochondrial membrane localized; hydrolyzes complex sphingolipids to produce ceramide; activates genes required for non-fermentable carbon source metabolism during diauxic shift; activated by phosphatidylserine, cardiolipin, and phosphatidylglycerol; mediates Na+ and Li+ halotolerance; ortholog of mammalian neutral sphingomyelinase type 2
      
 0.785
RLF2
Largest subunit (p90) of the Chromatin Assembly Complex (CAF-1); chromatin assembly by CAF-1 is important for multiple processes including silencing at telomeres, mating type loci, and rDNA; maintenance of kinetochore structure; deactivation of the DNA damage checkpoint after DNA repair; chromatin dynamics during transcription; and repression of divergent noncoding transcription
    
 
 0.782
FAB1
1-phosphatidylinositol 3-phosphate 5-kinase FAB1; 1-phosphatidylinositol-3-phosphate 5-kinase; vacuolar membrane kinase that generates phosphatidylinositol (3,5)P2, which is involved in vacuolar sorting and homeostasis
   
  
 0.734
YPL162C
Vacuolar membrane protein YPL162C; Putative protein of unknown function; green fluorescent protein (GFP)-fusion protein localizes to the membrane of vacuole with cell cycle-correlated morphology
   
  
 0.731
YPQ1
Putative vacuolar membrane transporter for cationic amino acids; likely contributes to amino acid homeostasis by exporting cationic amino acids from the vacuole; member of the PQ-loop family, with seven transmembrane domains; similar to mammalian PQLC2 vacuolar transporter; YPQ1 has a paralog, RTC2, that arose from the whole genome duplication; Belongs to the laat-1 family
      
 0.711
SNA2
Protein of unknown function; has similarity to Pmp3p, which is involved in cation transport; green fluorescent protein (GFP)-fusion protein localizes to the cytoplasm in a punctate pattern; Belongs to the UPF0057 (PMP3) family
