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

AXL1Putative protease AXL1; Haploid specific endoprotease of a-factor mating pheromone; performs one of two N-terminal cleavages during maturation of a-factor mating pheromone; required for axial budding pattern of haploid cells. (1208 aa)    
Predicted Functional Partners:
BUD4
Anillin-like protein involved in bud-site selection; required for the axial budding pattern; required for the formation and disassembly of the double septin ring structure, and generally for septin organization; functions as a platform linking the cytokinesis tag septins to the axial landmark through its multiple domains; in vivo substrate of Cdc28p/Clb2p.
   
 
 0.952
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.
   
  
 0.934
AXL2
Integral plasma membrane protein; required for axial budding in haploid cells; localizes to the incipient bud site and bud neck; glycosylated by Pmt4p; potential Cdc28p substrate.
    
 
 0.924
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.
      
 0.914
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.
   
  
 0.911
BUD3
Bud site selection protein 3; Guanine nucleotide exchange factor (GEF) for Cdc42p; activates Cdc42p in early G1, accounting for the first stage of biphasic activation, with Cdc24p accounting for the second stage in late G1; involved in the Cdc42p-mediated assembly of the axial landmark that dictates the site for the next round of budding, resulting in the axial budding pattern observed in haploids; localizes with septins to the bud neck contractile ring in mitosis.
   
  
 0.901
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.
    
 
 0.886
BUD5
Bud site selection protein 5; GTP/GDP exchange factor for Rsr1p (Bud1p); required for both axial and bipolar budding patterns; mutants exhibit random budding in all cell types.
   
 
 0.885
STE6
Alpha-factor-transporting ATPase; Plasma membrane ATP-binding cassette (ABC) transporter; required for the export of a-factor, catalyzes ATP hydrolysis coupled to a-factor transport; contains 12 transmembrane domains and two ATP binding domains; expressed only in MATa cells; human homolog ABCB1 mediates multidrug resistance in many chemotherapy-resistant tumors by effluxing toxic compounds from the cell.
   
  
 0.878
RAM1
Beta subunit of the CAAX farnesyltransferase (FTase); this complex prenylates the a-factor mating pheromone and Ras proteins; required for the membrane localization of Ras proteins and a-factor; homolog of the mammalian FTase beta subunit.
