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

twk-18TWiK family of potassium channels protein 18; Outwardly rectifying potassium channel protein; activity is sharply augmented by increase in temperature. Belongs to the two pore domain potassium channel (TC 1.A.1.8) family. (461 aa)    
Predicted Functional Partners:
F59F3.6
BTB_2 domain-containing protein.
   
  
 0.636
shw-1
BTB domain-containing protein; Belongs to the potassium channel family.
   
  
 0.620
unc-27
Troponin I 2; Troponin I is the inhibitory subunit of troponin, the thin filament regulatory complex which confers calcium-sensitivity to muscle actomyosin ATPase activity.
   
  
 0.615
csq-1
Calsequestrin; Calsequestrin is a high-capacity, moderate affinity, calcium- binding protein and thus acts as an internal calcium store in muscle.
   
  
 0.602
best-24
Bestrophin homolog 24; Forms chloride channels.
   
  
 0.563
mlc-1
Myosin regulatory light chain 1.
   
  
 0.531
tni-1
Troponin I 1; Troponin I is the inhibitory subunit of troponin, the thin filament regulatory complex which confers calcium-sensitivity to muscle actomyosin ATPase activity.
   
  
 0.531
unc-15
Paramyosin; Structural component of the muscle thick filaments which is involved in assembly and organization of sarcomere myofilaments. Involved in ovulation. Plays a role in the formation of muscle connections, also called muscle arm extensions, between the body wall and the motor axons in the dorsal and ventral cord. Belongs to the paramyosin family.
   
  
 0.519
mup-2
Troponin T; Troponin T is the tropomyosin-binding subunit of troponin, the thin filament regulatory complex which confers calcium-sensitivity to muscle actomyosin ATPase activity.
   
  
 0.504
unc-87
Protein unc-87; Thin filament-associated protein that is implicated in actin bundling and actin filament dynamics. Exhibits F-actin cross-linking activity. Required for the maintenance of sarcomeric actin organization in striated muscles. Competes with unc-60 isoform b for actin binding and protects actin filaments from depolymerization by unc-60, thereby contributing to actin filament stability. Cooperates with myosin to form actomyosin bundles and inhibits actomyosin ATPase activity and actomyosin motility. Might protect the myofilaments from mechanical stress.
