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

dlg-1Disks large homolog 1; Essential multidomain scaffolding protein required for normal development (Probable). Recruits channels, receptors and signaling molecules to discrete plasma membrane domains in polarized cells (By similarity). Required for proper embryonic elongation. Acts upstream of ajm-1 and becomes localized to apical junctions independently of ajm-1. With let-413, cooperatively regulates ajm-1 localization to apical junctions. Belongs to the MAGUK family. (967 aa)    
Predicted Functional Partners:
ajm-1
Apical junction molecule; Controls adherens junction integrity. Required for the correct rate and completion of elongation of the embryos.
   
 
 0.992
nmr-1
NMDA-type ionotropic glutamate receptor NMR-1; Belongs to the glutamate-gated ion channel (TC 1.A.10.1) family.
   
 0.951
let-413
Protein lap1; Critical role in assembling adherens junctions; adapter protein involved in polarizing protein trafficking in epithelial cells. Necessary to maintain, not establish, the entire terminal web (organelle-depleted, intermediate filament-rich layer of cytoplasm that underlies the apical microvilli of polarized epithelial cells) or brush border assembly at the apical surface gut cells. Required for correct localization of ifb-2 intermediate filaments in the terminal web. Required for dlg-1 lateral localization. With dlg-1, cooperatively regulates ajm-1 localization to apical ju [...]
   
 
 0.940
hmp-1
Alpha-catenin-like protein hmp-1; Required for cell migration during body enclosure and cell shape changes during body elongation. Required for proper localization of other junctional components, such as pac-1 ; Belongs to the vinculin/alpha-catenin family.
   
 
 0.910
ags-3
Activator of G protein Signalling.
   
 
 0.905
lin-2
Protein lin-2; May play a structural role in the induction of the vulva. May be required for the localization of signal transduction molecules (such as let-23 receptor) to either the basal membrane domain or the cell junctions.
   
 
0.904
hmr-1
Cadherin-related hmr-1; Cadherins are calcium-dependent cell adhesion proteins. They preferentially interact with themselves in a homophilic manner in connecting cells; cadherins may thus contribute to the sorting of heterogeneous cell types. Required for adherens junction assembly and connecting adherens junctions to the cytoskeleton. Isoform b is involved in axonal guidance in a subset of motor neurons.
   
 
 0.894
nmr-2
NMDA-type ionotropic glutamate receptor NMR-2.
    
 0.885
shk-1
Potassium voltage-gated channel protein shk-1; Mediates the voltage-dependent potassium ion permeability of excitable membranes. Has an important role in repolarization and in regulating the pattern of action potential firing. Isoform a expresses currents in a more depolarized voltage range than isoform d.
   
 
 0.871
klp-4
Kinesin motor domain-containing protein; Belongs to the TRAFAC class myosin-kinesin ATPase superfamily. Kinesin family.
