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

mbd-2MBD_C domain-containing protein. (210 aa)    
Predicted Functional Partners:
lin-40
Uncharacterized protein.
   
 
 0.954
lin-53
Probable histone-binding protein lin-53; Core histone-binding subunit that may target chromatin assembly factors, chromatin remodeling factors and histone deacetylases to their histone substrates in a manner that is regulated by nucleosomal DNA (By similarity). Required for hcp-3 and his-1 stabilization, localization of hcp-3 to centromeres and for proper chromosome segregation. Synthetic multivulva class B (synMuvB) protein. SynMuvB proteins are required to repress the induction of vulval development by Ras signaling and probably act by forming the multiprotein DRM complex that repres [...]
   
 
 0.913
lsy-12
Histone acetyltransferase; Belongs to the MYST (SAS/MOZ) family.
   
 
 0.877
rba-1
Probable histone-binding protein rba-1; Core histone-binding subunit that may target chromatin assembly factors, chromatin remodeling factors and histone deacetylases to their histone substrates in a manner that is regulated by nucleosomal DNA (By similarity). Plays a role in regulating cell cycle progression. Required to repress the induction of vulval development by Ras signaling. In association with the zinc finger protein ztf-11, negatively regulates the expression of non- neuronal genes during neurogenesis. Belongs to the WD repeat RBAP46/RBAP48/MSI1 family.
   
 
 0.848
let-418
Protein let-418; Part of a NuRD (Nucleosome Remodeling and Deacetylase) complex which is implicated in the synMuv B pathway that negatively regulates specification of vulval cell fate. This negative regulation is thought to be mediated via interaction with the promoter of lin-39, a key regulator in vulva development, and is dependent on the presence lin-1. Contributes to negative regulation of lag-2 which is expressed in the gut during larval development. Has a broad role in development. In association with akir-1, plays a role in regulating the transcription of antimicrobial peptide g [...]
   
 
 0.846
chd-3
Chromodomain-helicase-DNA-binding protein 3 homolog; Chromatin-remodeling protein that has a role in notch signaling-dependent vulval cell fate determination. May also have a role in pharyngeal precursor cell specification.
    
 
 0.825
hda-2
Putative histone deacetylase 2; Probably responsible for the deacetylation of lysine residues on the N-terminal part of the core histones (H2A, H2B, H3 and H4) (By similarity). Histone deacetylation gives a tag for epigenetic repression and plays an important role in transcriptional regulation, cell cycle progression and developmental events (By similarity). Histone deacetylases act via the formation of large multiprotein complexes (By similarity). As a likely component of a histone deacetylase complex, together with saeg-1 and hda-2, functions downstream of the cAMP-dependent kinase e [...]
   
 
 0.820
hda-3
Histone deacetylase; Belongs to the histone deacetylase family. HD Type 1 subfamily.
   
 
 0.820
dcp-66
Deacetylase Complex Protein.
   
 
 0.816
hda-1
Histone deacetylase 1; Responsible for the deacetylation of lysine residues on the N-terminal part of the core histones (H2A, H2B, H3 and H4). Histone deacetylation gives a tag for epigenetic repression. Plays an important role in transcriptional regulation, cell cycle progression and developmental events. Histone deacetylases act via the formation of large multiprotein complexes. Involved in the endoderm determination possibly by repressing end-1 expression. Also involved in vulval development, possibly by repressing lag-2 expression. In association with akir-1, plays a role in regula [...]
