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-2Ran 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. (960 aa)    
Predicted Functional Partners:
npp-9
Nuclear Pore complex Protein.
 
 
 0.999
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.

smo-1
Small ubiquitin-related modifier; Ubiquitin-like protein which can be covalently attached to target lysines as a monomer. Does not seem to be involved in protein degradation and may function as an antagonist of ubiquitin in the degradation process. Plays a role in a number of cellular processes such as nuclear transport, DNA replication and repair, mitosis and signal transduction. Covalent attachment to its substrates requires prior activation by the E1 complex aos-1-uba-2 and linkage to the E2 enzyme ubc-9, and can be promoted by an E3 ligase such as gei-17. Required for embryonic dev [...]

ubc-9
SUMO-conjugating enzyme UBC9; Accepts the ubiquitin-like protein smo-1 from the aos-1-uba-2 E1 complex and catalyzes its covalent attachment to other proteins with the help of an E3 ligase such as gei-17. Required to sumoylate the ETS transcription factor lin-1 and the Polycomb protein sop-2. Required for embryonic development, fertility, vulval morphogenesis and inhibition of vulval cell fates. Belongs to the ubiquitin-conjugating enzyme family.
   
 0.978
ran-3
Regulator 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.

xpo-1
Importin N-terminal domain-containing protein.
   
 
 0.935
ulp-1
Sentrin-specific protease; Protease that deconjugates smo-1 from targeted proteins and may catalyze the processing of smo-1 to its mature form.
   
 
 0.926
F14H12.3
Uncharacterized protein.
   
 
 0.925
imb-1
Importin N-terminal domain-containing protein.
   
 
 0.915
npp-15
Nuclear pore complex protein 15; Important for early nematode development. Belongs to the nucleoporin Nup133 family.
