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

mtk-1Protein kinase domain-containing protein. (1420 aa)    
Predicted Functional Partners:
sek-1
Dual specificity mitogen-activated protein kinase kinase sek-1; Dual specificity protein kinase which acts as an essential component of the p38 signal transduction pathway which is also composed of upstream effector nsy-1 and downstream effector pmk-1. May phosphorylate pmk-1. Downstream of CaMKII unc-43 and adapter protein tir- 1, plays a role in determining asymmetric cell fates in olfactory AWC neurons during neuronal development. Activation results in the repression of odorant receptor str-2 expression in one of the 2 AWC neurons. Involved in resistance to pathogenic Gram-positive [...]

cyp-44A1
Probable cytochrome P450 CYP44; Cytochromes P450 are a group of heme-thiolate monooxygenases. They oxidize a variety of structurally unrelated compounds, including steroids, fatty acids, and xenobiotics.
   
 
 0.584
E02D9.1
Protein kinase domain-containing protein; Belongs to the protein kinase superfamily.
   
 
0.574
mek-2
Dual specificity mitogen-activated protein kinase kinase mek-2; Functions in the let-60 Ras signaling pathway; acts downstream of lin-45 raf kinase, but before the sur-1/mpk-1 gene product in controlling vulval cell differentiation. Required for progression of developing oocytes through the pachytene stage. Plays a role in responses to M.nematophilum- mediated bacterial infection by promoting tail swelling and preventing constipation. Involved in fluid homeostasis. Positively regulates lifespan upstream of mpk-1.
   
 
0.573
shn-1
Protein shank; Scaffold protein that most likely acts in the postsynaptic density (PSD) of excitatory synapses which orchestrates synapse formation and maintenance at neuromuscular junctions. Associates with and trafficks the L-type calcium channel egl-19 to the cell surface of body wall muscles to ensure the function of the calcium channel and therefore maintain the Ca(2+) current density. The maintenance of Ca(2+) also allows for the downstream regulation of Ca(2+)-induced expression of genes such as gem-4. Plays a role in the regulation of the defecation cycle, and this may be in as [...]
   
 
 0.544
cdc-14
Tyrosine-protein phosphatase cdc-14; Protein phosphatase that negatively regulates the G1-to-S phase transition to inhibit the cell cycle and establish quiescence in cells of multiple lineages including vulval, hypodermal and intestinal. Promotes nuclear accumulation and activity of the cyclin-dependent kinase inhibitor cki-1 which leads to inhibition of G1 progression during vulval tissue development. Has been shown to not be required for cytokinesis. However, in the embryo, in a contrasting study, has been shown to act as a regulator of central spindle formation and cytokinesis, and [...]
   
 
 0.534
sax-1
Serine/threonine-protein kinase sax-1; Acts with sax-2 to restrict the growth of both primary and secondary neurites. Regulates mechanosensory tiling by controlling the termination point of sensory dendrites; Belongs to the protein kinase superfamily. AGC Ser/Thr protein kinase family.
    
 
0.522

C34B7.2
SAC domain-containing protein.
   
    0.497
unc-120
MADS-box domain-containing protein.
