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

ceh-16Homeobox protein engrailed-like ceh-16; Required in the seam cells during embryonic development. Represses the fusion of the seam cells with the neighboring dorsal and ventral epidermal cells by repressing the expression of the fusion effector eff-1. Required for early seam cell differentiation. Triggers the expression of elt-5 and other seam cell markers and is indispensable for alae formation (a hallmark of seam cell differentiation). Required for the maintenance of correct boundaries between the lateral rows of seam cells and the ventral and dorsal row of epidermal cells during embr [...] (187 aa)    
Predicted Functional Partners:
unc-37
Transcription factor unc-37; Transcriptional corepressor that functions with the neural specificity gene unc-4 to govern motor neuron identity. May function with transcription factor mls-1 to promote uterine muscle specification and formation.
