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

szy-20Suppressor of zyg-1 protein 20; RNA binding protein that is required for normal cell division and cytokinesis during embryonic development. Functions with RNA-binding protein atx-2 to ensure embryonic cell division, and to this end, plays a role in the regulation of centrosome assembly, position and size, and in astral microtubule outgrowth and nucleation. Furthermore, negatively regulates the levels of the protein kinase zyg-1 at the centrosome. Also involved in ensuring centrosome attachment to the nuclear envelope. (563 aa)    
Predicted Functional Partners:
zyg-1
Probable serine/threonine-protein kinase zyg-1; Protein kinase that plays a central role in centrosome duplication, control of centrosome size, spindle formation and nuclear envelope breakdown during cell divisions. Paternal copy is required to regulate synthesis of daughter centrioles prior to fertilization. Maternal copy regulates centrosome duplication during later cell cycles. Functions upstream of sas-5 and sas-6, and is required for their localization to the centrosome. Its role in nuclear envelope breakdown is mediated by the spindly-like protein spdl-1 and the RZZ complex, whic [...]

sas-4
Spindle assembly abnormal protein 4; Required for centrosome duplication. Plays a central role in determining centrosome size.
   
  
 0.846
sas-6
Spindle assembly abnormal protein 6; Central scaffolding component of the centrioles ensuring their 9-fold symmetry. Required for centrosome biogenesis and duplication.
   
  
 0.826
spd-2
Spindle-defective protein 2; Required both for centrosome duplication and maturation. Required for pericentriolar material (PCM) recruitment.
   
  
 0.771
spd-5
Spindle-defective protein 5; Plays a central role in centrosome maturation and mitotic spindle assembly during the first division of the zygote. Required for the centrosomal localization of air-1 and zyg-9. Probably not required in late embryogenesis and during larval development.
   
  
 0.762
sas-5
Spindle assembly abnormal protein 5; Required for centrosome duplication. Essential for daughter- centriole formation. Requires both maternal and partenal expression, suggesting that it regulates centriole duplication during both spermatogenesis and early embryogenesis.
   
  
 0.748
let-92
Serine/threonine-protein phosphatase 2A catalytic subunit; Protein phosphatase which plays an essential role in early embryonic cell division. Probably together with constant regulatory subunit paa-1 and regulatory subunit sur-6, positively regulates centriole duplication by preventing the degradation of sas-5 and kinase zyg-1. In addition, plays a role in the recruitment of sas- 6 and maybe sas-5 to centrioles and may dephosphorylate sas-5 and zyg-1 negative regulator szy-20. During vulva development, may play a role with regulatory subunits paa-1 and sur-6 in the induction of vulva c [...]

F15E6.3
RRM-type RNA binding protein.
      
 0.666
tac-1
Transforming acid coiled-coil-containing protein 1; Involved in microtubule formation, polymerization and assembly, regulating microtubule nucleation and length. Plays a role in pronuclear migration and mitotic and meiotic spindle elongation during early embryogenesis. In complex with zyg-9, functions during the early stages of embryonic development to regulate microtubule assembly throughout the cell cycle. Specifically, the complex is required for the formation and growth of astral microtubules and spindle microtubules during mitotic spindle assembly. At anaphase, the complex is requ [...]

tbg-1
Tubulin gamma chain; Tubulin is the major constituent of microtubules. The gamma chain is found at microtubule organizing centers (MTOC) such as the spindle poles or the centrosome, suggesting that it is involved in the minus-end nucleation of microtubule assembly.
