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

cep-1Transcription factor cep-1; Transcriptional activator that binds the same DNA consensus sequence as p53. Has a role in normal development to ensure proper meiotic chromosome segregation. Promotes apoptosis under conditions of cellular and genotoxic stress in response to DNA damage, hypoxia, or starvation. However, not required for DNA repair in response to UV-C or to regulate cell-cycle progression. Regulates germline apoptosis in response to DNA damage. Required for induction of ced-13 in response to DNA damage. Its pro-apoptotic activity is inhibited when bound to ape-1 in vitro (By [...] (658 aa)    
Predicted Functional Partners:
egl-1
Protein CBR-EGL-1.
      
 0.777
hus-1
Checkpoint protein; Belongs to the HUS1 family.
   
  
 0.753
ced-3
Protein CBR-CED-3; Belongs to the peptidase C14A family.
      
 0.742
ape-1
Protein CBR-APE-1.
    
 
 0.690
ced-1
Cell death abnormality protein 1; Involved in programmed cell death/apoptosis. Acts by recruiting ced-6 to phagosomes which enables actin-dependent cytoskeletal reorganization and subsequent engulfment of the apoptotic cell corpse. Has a role in the association of ppk-3 and rab-7 with the phagosomal surface which is necessary for the incorporation of lysosomes to phagosomes during phagosome maturation. Activates the expression of unfolded protein response genes, which are involved in the immune response to live bacteria (By similarity).
      
 0.685
ced-9
Apoptosis regulator ced-9; Plays a major role in programmed cell death (PCD, apoptosis). egl-1 binds to and directly inhibits the activity of ced-9, releasing the cell death activator ced-4 from a ced-9/ced-4 containing protein complex and allowing ced-4 to activate the cell-killing caspase ced-3. During larval development, required for the elimination of transient presynaptic components downstream of egl-1 and upstream of ced-4 and ced-3 apoptotic pathway.
      
 0.685
ced-4
Cell death protein 4; Plays a major role in programmed cell death (PCD, apoptosis). egl-1 binds to and directly inhibits the activity of ced-9, releasing the cell death activator ced-4 from a ced-9/ced-4 containing protein complex and allowing ced-4 to induce caspase ced-3 autoproteolytic cleavage and activation. Also forms an holoenzyme with processed ced-3 enhancing ced-3 activity. Component of the egl-1, ced-9, ced-4 and ced- 3 apoptotic signaling cascade required for the initiation of programmed cell death in cells fated to die during embryonic and postembryonic development. During [...]

clk-2
Protein CBR-CLK-2.
      
 0.671
rad-51
DNA repair protein RAD51 homolog; Binds to single and double-stranded DNA and exhibits DNA- dependent ATPase activity. Underwinds duplex DNA. Belongs to the RecA family. RAD51 subfamily.
      
 0.665
spo-11
Protein CBR-SPO-11.
