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

ran-3Regulator of chromosome condensation; Key component of the Ran GTPase system, which comprises ran- 1, ran-2 and ran-3 and is essential in nucleocytoplasmic transport. Promotes the exchange of Ran-bound GDP by GTP and regulates the onset of chromosome condensation in the S phase. Binds to the chromatin. RCC1 (ran-3)/RAN (ran-1) complex (together with other proteins) acts as a component of a signal transmission pathway that detects unreplicated DNA. (569 aa)    
Predicted Functional Partners:
ran-1
GTP-binding nuclear protein ran-1; Ran GTPase system comprises ran-1, ran-2 and ran-3 and is essential in nucleocytoplasmic transport. Ran-1 is a GTP-binding protein that mediates the interaction between mitotic chromosomes and kinetochore microtubules. Plays a crucial role in nuclear envelope assembly at the end of each cell division. Required for the import of protein into the nucleus and also for RNA export. RCC1 (ran-3)/Ran (ran-1) complex (together with other proteins) acts as a component of a signal transmission pathway that detects unreplicated DNA.
   
 0.997
ran-2
Ran GTPase-activating protein 2; GTPase system comprising ran-1, ran-2 and ran-3 is essential in nucleocytoplasmic trafficking. Ran-2 is a GTPase activator for the nuclear RAS-related regulatory protein Ran, converting it to the putatively inactive GDP-bound state. Required for correct chromosome alignment and segregation on the metaphase plate.

npp-9
Nuclear Pore complex Protein.

ima-3
Importin subunit alpha-3; Binds specifically and directly to substrates containing either a simple or bipartite NLS motif. Promotes docking of import substrates to the nuclear envelope. Seems to act as a cytosolic receptor for both simple and bipartite NLS motifs. Necessary for correct nucleoporin localization within the germline. Belongs to the importin alpha family.

ima-2
Importin subunit alpha-2; Binds specifically and directly to substrates containing either a simple or bipartite NLS motif. Promotes docking of import substrates to the nuclear envelope. Seems to act as a cytosolic receptor for both simple and bipartite NLS motifs (By similarity).

pdl-1
Phosphodiesterase delta-like protein.
    
 
 0.886
nath-10
RNA cytidine acetyltransferase; RNA cytidine acetyltransferase with specificity toward both 18S rRNA and tRNAs. Catalyzes the formation of N(4)-acetylcytidine (ac4C) in 18S rRNA. Required for early nucleolar cleavages of precursor rRNA at sites A0, A1 and A2 during 18S rRNA synthesis. Catalyzes the formation of ac4C in serine and leucine tRNAs. Requires a tRNA-binding adapter protein for full tRNA acetyltransferase activity but not for 18S rRNA acetylation.

smc-4
Structural maintenance of chromosomes protein 4; Central component of the condensin I complex, a complex required for conversion of interphase chromatin into mitotic-like condense chromosomes. The condensin I complex introduces positive supercoils into relaxed DNA in the presence of type I topoisomerases. Converts nicked DNA into positive knotted forms in the presence of type II topoisomerases (By similarity). Also a central component of the condensin II complex, a complex that seems to play a role in prophase chromosome condensation. Both the condensin complex I and II play a role in [...]
