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

klc-2Kinesin light chain; Kinesin is a microtubule-associated force-producing protein that may play a role in organelle transport (Probable). The light chain may function in coupling of cargo to the heavy chain or in the modulation of its ATPase activity (Probable). Recruits unc-83 (within the unc-83-unc-84 LINC complex) to the nuclear envelope during nuclear migration to mediate the link between the nuclear envelope and the microtubule cytoskeleton in hypodermal precursor cells. (540 aa)    
Predicted Functional Partners:
unc-116
Kinesin heavy chain; Microtubule-dependent motor protein required for organelle transport. Plays a role in endosome transport. Required for the transport of mitochondria along the axon of motor neurons. Involved in the nuclear migration of hyp7 hypodermal precursor cells. Required for the formation of dendritic branches of PVD sensory neurons. In non-ciliated neurons such as the PVD and PHC neurons, required for the organization of minus-end out microtubules in dendrites. Involved in the localization of unc-33 to neurites.

unc-16
JNK-interacting protein; The JNK-interacting protein (JIP) group of scaffold proteins selectively mediates JNK signaling by aggregating specific components of the MAPK cascade to form a functional JNK signaling module. May function as a regulator of synaptic vesicle transport, through interactions with the JNK-signaling components and motor proteins. Binds specific components of the JNK signaling pathway namely jnk-1, jkk-1 and sek-1. Associates with components of the motor protein, kinesin-1. Pre-assembled unc-16 scaffolding complexes are then transported as a cargo of kinesin, to the [...]

unc-83
Nuclear migration protein unc-83; Cargo-specific adapter that is involved in nuclear migration during development and thereafter. Component of the unc-83-unc-84 LINC (LInker of Nucleoskeleton and Cytoskeleton) complex where it interacts with unc-84 to form a bridge connecting the nuclear envelope to the cytoskeleton which allows for nuclear transport along microtubules. Within the complex, connects the nuclear envelope to the microtubule cytoskeleton through the kinesin-1 light chain protein klc-2 (most likely within the Kinesin 1 motor complex) to regulate nuclear migrations. Moreover [...]

unc-104
Kinesin-like protein unc-104; Motor protein involved in microtubule-associated anterograde transport. Regulates the transport of synaptic vesicle precursors in the axon of DA motor neurons. Regulates the polarized sorting of axonal proteins. Essential for the transport of synaptic components during the synaptic remodeling of the DD motor neuron, probably downstream of cdk-5 and/or pct-1/cyy-1 complex. Required for the anterograde transport of neuropeptide-containing dense core vesicles along axons. Involved in necrotic cell death. Belongs to the TRAFAC class myosin-kinesin ATPase super [...]
