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

sid-1Systemic RNA interference defective protein 1; Plays a role in RNA-mediated gene silencing by acting cell- autonomously as a channel for the transport of double-stranded RNA (dsRNA) between cells. Mediates the spread of dsRNA and subsequent silencing of genes in cells distant from the site of dsRNA introduction. Selective for dsRNA. Preferentially binds long dsRNA, from 50 base pairs up to 700. Short 20 base-pair long molecules are not bound. May also bind dsDNA, but with lower affinity. Binding may be sequence-independent. Belongs to the SID1 family. (776 aa)    
Predicted Functional Partners:
sid-2
Systemic RNA interference defective protein 2; Plays a role in RNA-mediated gene silencing by mediating endocytic uptake of double-stranded RNA (dsRNA) ingested from the environment into intestinal cells from the intestinal lumen. Selective for dsRNAs of at least 50 bp.
      
 0.964
rde-1
RNA interference promoting factor RDE-1.
   
 
 0.916
sid-5
Systemic RNA interference defective protein 5; Plays a role in RNA-mediated gene silencing by mediating transport of both ingested and endogenous dsRNA between cells. Not required for the uptake of dsRNA from the intestinal lumen.
      
 0.855
sid-3
Tyrosine-protein kinase sid-3; Tyrosine-protein kinase which plays a role in RNA-mediated gene silencing by mediating import of double-stranded RNA (dsRNA) into cells. Not required for import of ingested dsRNA into intestinal cells but involved in subsequent export from intestinal cells to internal tissues.
      
 0.850
rsd-3
ENTH domain-containing protein.
      
 0.818
rde-4
RNA interference promoting factor.
   
  
 0.818
rrf-3
RNA-dependent RNA polymerase Family.
   
 
 0.805
rol-6
Cuticle collagen rol-6; Nematode cuticles are composed largely of collagen-like proteins. The cuticle functions both as an exoskeleton and as a barrier to protect the worm from its environment. Involved in body morphogenesis.

rsd-2
RSD-2 domain-containing protein.
   
  
 0.748
hrde-1
