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

unc-36Voltage-dependent calcium channel unc-36; May act as an auxiliary subunit of the unc-2 voltage-gated calcium channel which appears to trigger calcium-activated signaling pathways that control the serotonin response. Inhibiting serotonin sensitivity of the vulval muscles results in egg laying defects. May act in both neurons and muscle cells to enhance motor activity as it is required for coordinated movement. Has a role in neural depolarization- induced calcium influx and pharyngeal pumping. Involved in restricting the expression of the putative olfactory receptor str-2 to only one of [...] (1254 aa)

egl-19
Voltage-dependent L-type calcium channel subunit alpha; Voltage-sensitive calcium channels (VSCC) mediate the entry of calcium ions into excitable cells and are also involved in a variety of calcium-dependent processes, including muscle contraction, hormone or neurotransmitter release, gene expression, cell motility, cell division and cell death; Belongs to the calcium channel alpha-1 subunit (TC 1.A.1.11) family.

Voltage-dependent T-type calcium channel subunit alpha; Voltage-sensitive calcium channels (VSCC) mediate the entry of calcium ions into excitable cells and are also involved in a variety of calcium-dependent processes, including muscle contraction, hormone or neurotransmitter release, gene expression, cell motility, cell division and cell death. This channel gives rise to T-type calcium currents. T-type calcium channels belong to the "low-voltage activated (LVA)" group and are strongly blocked by nickel and mibefradil. A particularity of this type of channels is an opening at quite ne [...]

unc-43
Calcium/calmodulin-dependent protein kinase type II; Role in locomotion and neuronal cell fate specification. Required for the regulation of synaptic density, egg laying, defecation, and meiotic maturation. Required for viability under chronic osmotic stress in which it acts downstream of osr-1. Regulates the synaptic trafficking of glr-1. Bidirectional modulator of neurotransmitter release with negative modulatory effects mainly mediated via slo-1 activation. May suppress the functional response to an internal pacemaker, perhaps by modulating the activity of the IP3 receptor (By simil [...]

unc-32
V-type proton ATPase subunit a; Essential component of the vacuolar proton pump (V-ATPase), a multimeric enzyme that catalyzes the translocation of protons across the membranes. Required for assembly and activity of the V-ATPase.
