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

CIK1Spindle pole body-associated protein CIK1; Kinesin-associated protein; required for both karyogamy and mitotic spindle organization, interacts stably and specifically with Kar3p and may function to target this kinesin to a specific cellular role; locus encodes a long and short transcript with differing functions; CIK1 has a paralog, VIK1, that arose from the whole genome duplication. (594 aa)    
Predicted Functional Partners:
KAR3
Kinesin-like protein KAR3; Minus-end-directed microtubule motor; functions in mitosis and meiosis, localizes to the spindle pole body and localization is dependent on functional Cik1p, required for nuclear fusion during mating; potential Cdc28p substrate.
   
 
 0.999
KIP1
Kinesin-like protein KIP1; Kinesin-related motor protein; required for mitotic spindle assembly, chromosome segregation, and 2 micron plasmid partitioning; functionally redundant with Cin8p for chromosomal but not plasmid functions; Belongs to the TRAFAC class myosin-kinesin ATPase superfamily. Kinesin family. BimC subfamily.
   
 
 0.969
KIP3
Kinesin-like protein KIP3; Kinesin-related antiparallel sliding motor protein; involved in mitotic spindle positioning; sliding activity promotes bipolar spindle assembly and maintenance of genome stability; inhibits spindle elongation, destabilizing late anaphase spindle microtubules that polymerize beyond the midzone; Belongs to the TRAFAC class myosin-kinesin ATPase superfamily. Kinesin family. Kinesin II subfamily.
   
 0.965
VIK1
Spindle pole body-associated protein VIK1; Protein that forms a kinesin-14 heterodimeric motor with Kar3p; localizes Kar3p at mitotic spindle poles; has a structure similar to a kinesin motor domain but lacks an ATP-binding site and is catalytically inactive; binds microtubules; required for sister chromatid cohesion; VIK1 has a paralog, CIK1, that arose from the whole genome duplication.
   
0.953
KIP2
Kinesin-like protein KIP2; Kinesin-related motor protein involved in mitotic spindle positioning; stabilizes microtubules by targeting Bik1p to the plus end; functions as a microtubule polymerase and catastrophe inhibitor in vitro; Kip2p levels are controlled during the cell cycle.
   
 
 0.946
BIM1
Protein BIM1; Microtubule plus end-tracking protein; together with Kar9p makes up the cortical microtubule capture site and delays the exit from mitosis when the spindle is oriented abnormally; homolog of human end binding protein 1 (EB1); Belongs to the MAPRE family.
   
 
 0.918
KAR1
Cell division control protein KAR1; Protein involved in karyogamy and spindle pole body duplication; involved in karyogamy during mating; involved in spindle pole body duplication during mitosis; localizes to the half-bridge of the spindle pole body; interacts with Spc72p during karyogamy; also interacts with Cdc31p; essential gene.
   
  
 0.903
CIN8
Kinesin-like protein CIN8; Kinesin motor protein; involved in mitotic spindle assembly and chromosome segregation.
   
 
 0.859
CDC31
Cell division control protein 31; Calcium-binding component of the spindle pole body (SPB) half-bridge; required for SPB duplication in mitosis and meiosis II; homolog of mammalian centrin; binds multiubiquitinated proteins and is involved in proteasomal protein degradation.
      
 0.842
SGO1
Shugoshin; Component of the spindle checkpoint; involved in sensing lack of tension on mitotic chromosomes; protects centromeric Rec8p at meiosis I; required for accurate chromosomal segregation at meiosis II and for mitotic chromosome stability; recruits condensin to the pericentric region of chromosomes during meiosis; dissociates from pericentromeres when sister kinetochores are under tension; Belongs to the shugoshin family.
