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

ark-1Ack-related non-receptor tyrosine kinase; Probable tyrosine protein kinase which plays a role in vulva development, probably by acting as a negative regulator of the let- 23/EGFR and let-60/ras pathway. Involved in the negative regulation of germline development. (1043 aa)    
Predicted Functional Partners:
sem-5
Sex muscle abnormal protein 5; Adapter protein which modulates signaling mediated by several receptor tyrosine kinases such as egl-15 and let-23 probably acting upstream of let-60/ras. Negatively regulates vulva induction probably downstream of let-23. Involved in sex myoblast migration. Negatively regulates fluid homeostasis probably downstream of egl-15. During the formation of neuromuscular junctions at the larval stage, negatively regulates membrane protrusion from body wall muscles probably downstream of egl- 15. Involved in cytoskeleton dynamics and is recruited by mig-13 to the [...]

lip-1
Dual specificity protein phosphatase lip-1; Dephosphorylates MAP kinase mpk-1. Belongs to the protein-tyrosine phosphatase family. Non- receptor class dual specificity subfamily.
   
  
 0.824
sli-1
Suppressor of LIneage defect.

lst-4
Sorting nexin lst-4; Involved in the signaling of vulval development by acting as a negative regulator of epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) signaling. Aids in phagosomal membrane tubule formation which is required for phagosomal fusion with endosomes and lysosomes. Also recruits rab-7 to phagosomes by an interaction with dyn-1. These are events leading to phagosome maturation which is a step in apoptotic cell corpse clearance. Binds phosphatidylinositol-3,4,5-trisphosphate. Belongs to the sorting nexin family.

lst-1
Lateral Signaling Target.

lst-2
Lateral signaling target protein 2; Negative regulator of epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) signaling; Belongs to the lst-2 family.

dpy-23
AP-2 complex subunit mu; Component of the adaptor complexes which link clathrin to receptors in coated vesicles (By similarity). Clathrin-associated protein complexes are believed to interact with the cytoplasmic tails of membrane proteins, leading to their selection and concentration (By similarity). AP50 is a subunit of the plasma membrane adaptor (By similarity). Essential wnt/egl-20 signaling protein that functions in wnt/egl-20-producing cells. Required for the AP-2 complex-mediated endocytosis of membrane proteins including wntless homolog mig-14 in egl-20-producing cells. During [...]

dep-1
Receptor-type tyrosine-protein phosphatase dep-1; Phosphatase which may dephosphorylate receptor let-23 and thereby regulate cell fate during the development of the vulva and the excretory system. By inhibiting let-23 signaling prevents the establishment of a primary cell fate in the descendants of vulva precursor cells P5.p and P7.p. Similarly, may prevent duct cell fate in ABpr precursor. Also dephosphorylates the beta-integrin subunit pat-3, probably within the alpha pat-2/beta pat-3 integrin receptor complex, which leads to down- stream effects including the negative regulation of [...]

lin-12
Protein lin-12; Involved in several cell fate decisions that require cell- cell interactions. It is possible that lin-12 encodes a membrane-bound receptor for a signal that enables expression of the ventral uterine precursor cell fate. Activity in cell fate decisions and tumorigenesis is negatively regulated by sel-10. Functions in uterine cells to promote basement membrane mobility during tissue remodeling.
      
 0.665
lin-10
Protein lin-10; Required specifically for the determination of 3 vulval precursor cell fates P5.p, P6.p and P7.p during late second and early third larval stages; required for basolateral localization of receptor tyrosine kinase let-23. Could have a general but redundant role in development, functioning in diverse cell lineages to control cell fates. Regulates the trafficking of the glutamate receptor glr-1 in the ventral nerve cord.
