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

syg-2Synaptogenesis protein syg-2; Cell adhesion protein. Determines synapse formation. Required for correct localization of syg-1 at synaptic sites. (1230 aa)    
Predicted Functional Partners:
syg-1
Synaptogenesis protein syg-1; Cell adhesion protein. Involved in synapse formation in the HSNL egg-laying motor neuron. Inhibits assembly of the SCF(sel-10) E3 ubiquitin ligase complex at synapses, and protects them from elimination. Also required for F- actin assembly at the synaptic region and for axon branch formation.

igcm-1
ImmunoGlobulin-like Cell adhesion Molecule family.

nck-1
NCK (Non-Catalytic region of tyrosine Kinase) adaptor protein family.

unc-6
Netrin unc-6; Component of an extracellular matrix cue that guides dorsoventral migrations on the epidermis. Required for the guidance of pioneer axons and migrating cells along the body wall. During gonad morphogenesis, involved in distal tip cell (DTC) migration from the dorsal side of the hermaphrodite body to the midbody to allow for formation of gonad arms. Its association with either unc-40 or unc-5 receptors will lead to axon attraction or repulsion, respectively. Involved in the positioning of ray 1, the most anterior ray sensilium, in the male tail. Required for the formation [...]

syd-1
Rho GTPase-activating protein syd-1; Probable GTPase activator for the Rho-type GTPases by converting them to an inactive GDP-bound state. Regulates the localization and assembly of presynaptic components during presynaptic development and is required for specifying the identity of axons during initial polarity acquisition. In these roles it is thought to act cell autonomously downstream of syg-1 and syg-2 and upstream of syd-2, possibly as a positive regulator of the latter. Required for the control of movement, egg-laying and the correct localization of elks-1.
   
 
 0.715
bam-2
Neurexin-related protein bam-2; Maintains the normal guidance and termination of axonal branches of VC motorneurons. By associating with cell adhesion protein casy-1, mediates axonal interactions to establish synaptic connections between the male-specific sensory neuron HOA and the AVG interneuron. Plays a role in regulating male mating behavior.

unc-40
Unc-40 protein.
   
  
 0.711
syd-2
Liprin-alpha; May play a role in regulating the structure of the neuronal region, called the active zone, from which synaptic vesicles send neurotransmitter signals across the synapse. This may be in association with the liprin-beta protein hlb-1 ; Belongs to the liprin family. Liprin-alpha subfamily.
   
  
 0.710
sad-1
Serine/threonine kinase SAD-1; Regulates both neuronal polarity and synaptic organization when bound to strd-1. Kinase activity is required for the establishment, but not the maintenance, of both processes. Binding to nab-1 is essential for role in restricting axonal fate during neuronal polarization but is not required for regulating synapse morphology.
