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

wrm-1Armadillo repeat-containing protein wrm-1; Antagonistic role in the Wnt signaling pathway that operates in embryogenesis. When located at the cortex it has been shown to inhibit Wnt signaling during asymmetric cell division but when relocated to the nucleus it shows positive regulation. Has a role in blastomere signaling during endoderm specification. Activates lit-1- dependent kinase activity. Wrm-1/lit-1 complex promotes phosphorylation, down-regulation and subcellular relocation of pop-1. Can substitute for bar-1 indicating functional redundancy. Appears to have a role in centrosome [...] (796 aa)    
Predicted Functional Partners:
pop-1
Protein pop-1; Part of the Wnt signaling pathway essential for the specification of the mesodermal cell fate in early embryos. Required for asymmetrical division of somatic gonadal precursor descendants which initiate axis formation required to control organ shape. Represses expression of target genes via its interaction with hda-1 histone deacetylase. Required for specification of the M lineage-derived coelomocyte and sex myoblast fate. Regulates coelomocyte fate by positively regulating proliferation and ceh-34 and possibly eya-1 expression in M.dlpa and M.drpa precursors.

lit-1
Serine/threonine kinase NLK; Has a role in the Wnt signaling pathway controlling the asymmetry of cell divisions during embryogenesis. Operates in the AB and EMS cell lineages influencing cell specification. Required for body wall muscle development, endoderm development, pop-1 asymmetry and T- cell division asymmetry. Lit-1/wrm-1 complex regulates pop-1 localization and is required for pop-1/par-5 interaction. Plays a role in male tail tip morphogenesis.
    
 
 0.992
kin-19
Casein kinase I isoform alpha; Belongs to the protein kinase superfamily. CK1 Ser/Thr protein kinase family. Casein kinase I subfamily.
   
 0.980
hmp-2
Beta-catenin-like protein hmp-2; Required for cell migration during body enclosure and cell shape changes during body elongation. Plays a role in recruitment of the cadherin protein hmr-1 to adherens junctions.
   
 
 0.980
pry-1
Axin-like protein pry-1; Works in parallel with axl-1 in negatively regulating bar-1 signaling in vulval precursor cells and Q neuroblasts. Inhibits Wnt signaling, which affects tissue specific expression of Hox genes, egl- 5, lin-39 and mab-5. This in turn affects QR (postembryonic neuroblast) cell migration, vulval cell fate specification, and the development of sensory structures by the seam cell lineage. Has a role in alae V cell patterning, ray formation in the male tail and axon guidance. Does not affect B cell polarity.
     
 0.979
apr-1
Adenomatous polyposis coli protein-related protein 1; Has a role in endoderm cell specification and pharyngeal development. Required for the migration of epithelial cells, organization of the anterior seam cells and ceh-13 expression during embryo morphogenesis. Prevents hyperactivation of the Wnt signaling pathway during endoderm development, probably by preventing hmp-2 nuclear translocation. During larval development, apr-1 is required for expression of lin-39 in P3-8.p. Shown to negatively regulate Wnt signaling in vulval precursor cells. Has a role in cell division by establishing [...]
   
 0.977
gsk-3
Glycogen synthase kinase-3; Phosphorylates oma-1, a regulator of the oocyte-to-embryo transition, enabling its degradation. Phosphorylates skn-1, preventing it from accumulating in nuclei and thus inhibiting phase II gene expression in the oxidative stress defense. Involved in mesendoderm specification and mitotic spindle orientation in EMS blastomeres. Thought to be a branch point in these processes as proteins downstream are not required. Negatively regulates Wnt signaling in vulval precursor cells and acts as a Wnt-independent repressor of med-1 and med-2 in the C lineage inhibiting [...]
    
 0.972
sys-1
SYmmetrical Sister cell hermaphrodite gonad defect.
   
 
 0.956
lin-23
F-box/WD repeat-containing protein lin-23; Functions cell autonomously to negatively regulate cell cycle progression. Required to restrain cell proliferation in response to developmental cues. Probably recognizes and binds to some proteins and promotes their ubiquitination and degradation (By similarity).
   
 0.953
bar-1
Beta-catenin/armadillo-related protein 1; Participates in the Wnt signaling pathway which affects cell fate and may regulate the stem cell divisions of seam cells during larval development. Functions as a transcriptional activator but is dependent on the interaction with pop-1. Involved in maintaining lin-39 Hox expression and regulating glr-1 abundance at the synapses. Required for mab-5 expression during Q neuroblast migration and for oxidative stress-induced daf-16 signaling. Has roles in egg laying, vulva precursor cell fate determination, Q neuroblast migration, posterior ectoderm [...]
