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

cal-2CALmodulin related genes. (171 aa)    
Predicted Functional Partners:
unc-43
Calcium/calmodulin-dependent protein kinase type II; Acts in the signaling of a variety of pathways and processes. Phosphorylates 'Ser-319' of daf-16 in response to stress signals, such as heat, starvation and oxidation, which plays a role in prolonging lifespan. Required for viability under chronic osmotic stress in which it acts downstream of osr-1. Has roles in locomotion, oocyte maturation, brood size, egg laying, defecation, meiotic maturation and neuronal cell fate specification. Required for the regulation of synaptic density and neuromuscular junction morphology. Regulates the [...]

mlck-1
Protein kinase domain-containing protein.
   
 0.984
tax-6
Serine/threonine-protein phosphatase 2B catalytic subunit; Calcium-dependent, calmodulin-stimulated protein phosphatase. Dephosphorylates arrd-17. Dephosphorylates daf-16 at 'Ser-319' which regulates daf-16 nuclear translocation. Dephosphorylates calcium permeable cation channel pkd-2 at 'Ser-534'. Regulates male mating behavior including response to hermaphrodite contact and vulva location and localization of pkd-2 to neuronal cilium. Negatively regulates several sensory behaviors including thermotaxis in ADF neurons, osmosensation in ASH neurons, olfaction adaptation in AWC neurons a [...]
   
 0.983
cmk-1
Calcium/calmodulin-dependent protein kinase type 1; Calcium/calmodulin-dependent protein kinase that operates in the calcium-triggered CaMKK-CaMK1 signaling cascade which results in transcriptional activation. Transcriptional activation occurs at least in part through phosphorylation of crh-1. Regulates gene expression, sensory morphology, and function of the AFD thermosensory neurons. Involved in long-term adaptation of AFD neurons to temperatures warmer than the initial acclimatized cultivation temperature. Acts in the FLP thermal nociceptors to moderate the responsiveness to noxious [...]
   
 0.974
ckk-1
Calcium/calmodulin-dependent protein kinase kinase; Calcium/calmodulin-dependent protein kinase which phosphorylates cmk-1. Component of a calcium-triggered signaling cascade involved in CRE-mediated transcriptional activation, probably through cmk-1-mediated crh-1/CREB phosphorylation.
   
 0.952
pde-1
Probable 3',5'-cyclic phosphodiesterase pde-1; Redundantly with pde-5, plays a role in the AFD thermosensory neurons to regulate microvilli receptive ending morphology, possibly by regulating cGMP levels.
   
 0.952
hsp-90
Heat shock protein 90; Molecular chaperone that promotes the maturation, structural maintenance and proper regulation of specific target proteins involved for instance in cell cycle control and signal transduction. Undergoes a functional cycle that is linked to its ATPase activity. This cycle probably induces conformational changes in the client proteins, thereby causing their activation. Interacts dynamically with various co- chaperones that modulate its substrate recognition, ATPase cycle and chaperone function. By stabilizing the receptor-type guanylate cyclase daf-11 or another sig [...]

act-5
ACTin.
   
 
 0.943
cnb-1
Protein phosphatase 2B regulatory subunit cnb-1; Regulatory subunit of tax-6/calcineurin A, a calcium- dependent, calmodulin-stimulated protein phosphatase. Confers calcium sensitivity. Plays a role in egg- laying, fertility, growth, movement and cuticle development. Plays a role in sensitivity to CO2 levels. Regulates expression of tax-6 inhibitor rcn-1. Negatively regulates nicotinic acetylcholine receptor (nAChR) sensitivity to nicotine. Negatively regulates lifespan. Involved in endocytic processes including coelomocyte endocytosis, intestine apical endocytosis and synaptic vesicle [...]

lfe-2
Inositol-trisphosphate 3-kinase homolog; Probably by regulating inositol 1,4,5-trisphosphate levels, negatively regulates posterior body wall muscle contractions required for defecation and let-23 signaling pathway that controls spermathecal dilation and ovulation. May also regulate ovulation downstream of actin cross-linker fln-1.
