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

unc-103Potassium voltage-gated channel unc-103; Pore-forming (alpha) subunit of voltage-gated inwardly rectifying potassium channel. Channel properties are modulated by cAMP and subunit assembly (By similarity). Regulates the movements of the male's copulatory spicules before and during male mating behavior ; Belongs to the potassium channel family. H (Eag) (TC 1.A.1.20) subfamily. Kv11.1/KCNH2 sub-subfamily. (898 aa)    
Predicted Functional Partners:
egl-19
Voltage-dependent L-type calcium channel subunit alpha; Voltage-sensitive calcium channels (VSCC) mediate the entry of calcium ions into excitable cells and are also involved in a variety of calcium-dependent processes, including muscle contraction, hormone or neurotransmitter release, gene expression, cell motility, cell division and cell death; Belongs to the calcium channel alpha-1 subunit (TC 1.A.1.11) family.

unc-43
Calcium/calmodulin-dependent protein kinase type II; Acts in the signaling of a variety of pathways and processes. Phosphorylates 'Ser-319' of daf-16 in response to stress signals, such as heat, starvation and oxidation, which plays a role in prolonging lifespan. Required for viability under chronic osmotic stress in which it acts downstream of osr-1. Has roles in locomotion, oocyte maturation, brood size, egg laying, defecation, meiotic maturation and neuronal cell fate specification. Required for the regulation of synaptic density and neuromuscular junction morphology. Regulates the [...]

slo-1
Calcium-activated potassium channel slo-1; Potassium channel activated by both membrane depolarization or increase in cytosolic Ca(2+) that mediates export of K(+). Its activation dampens the excitatory events that elevate the cytosolic Ca(2+) concentration and/or depolarize the cell membrane. It therefore contributes to repolarization of the membrane potential. Essential for the regulation of neurotransmitter release at synapses.

dnj-1
DnaJ homolog subfamily B member 1; Acts as a co-chaperone with Hsp70 required to promote protein folding and trafficking, prevent aggregation of client proteins, and promote unfolded proteins to endoplasmic reticulum-associated degradation (ERAD) pathway (By similarity). Acts by determining Hsp70's ATPase and polypeptide-binding activities (By similarity). Can also act as a chaperone that promotes maturation of potassium channel unc-103 by stabilizing nascent channel subunits and assembling them into tetramers ; Belongs to the DnaJ family. DNAJB12/DNAJB14 subfamily.

lite-1
High-energy light unresponsive protein 1; Photoreceptor for short wavelength (UV) light that mediates UV-light-induced avoidance behavior. Directly senses and absorbs both UV-A and UV-B light with very high efficiency. Absorption of UV-B but not UV-A light shows resistance to photobleaching. In contrast to other photoreceptors, does not use a prosthetic chromophore to capture photons and only depends on its protein conformation.

lev-11
Tropomyosin isoforms a/b/d/f; Tropomyosin, in association with the troponin complex, plays a central role in the calcium dependent regulation of muscle contraction. Involved in muscle actin filament organization and muscle arm extension and morphology. Protects actin filaments from depolymerization by unc-60 in vitro. Also has a role in male mating behavior by regulating the copulatory spicules. Binds to F-actin.
