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

kbp-5KNL (Kinetochore null) Binding Protein. (135 aa)    
Predicted Functional Partners:
czw-1
Centromere/kinetochore protein zw10 homolog; Essential component of the mitotic checkpoint, which prevents cells from prematurely exiting mitosis. Required for the assembly of the dynein-dynactin and mdf-1-mdf-2 complexes onto kinetochores. Its function related to the spindle assembly machinery and kinetochore-microtubule attachments likely depends on its association in the mitotic RZZ complex. The RZZ complex recruits the spindly-like protein spdl-1 to kinetochores. To prevent irregular chromosome segregation, the complex also inhibits the attachment of the kinetochore-associated NDC8 [...]

mdf-1
MAD (Yeast Mitosis arrest DeFicient) related.
   
  
 0.760
cls-2
Protein CLASP-2; Probable microtubule plus-end tracking protein that promotes the stabilization of dynamic microtubules. Required for the formation of mitotic and meiotic spindles. Specifically promotes the polymerization of kinetochore-bound microtubules. Also required for cytoplasmic streaming. Essential for embryonic development.
      
 0.691
hcp-3
Histone H3-like centromeric protein hcp-3; Histone H3-like variant which exclusively replaces conventional H3 in the nucleosome core of centromeric chromatin at the inner plate of the kinetochore. Required for recruitment and assembly of kinetochore proteins, mitotic progression and chromosome segregation. May serve as an epigenetic mark that propagates centromere identity through replication and cell division (By similarity). Might promote cleavage furrow stability during cytokinesis. Not required for chromosome segregation during meiosis.

kbp-1
KNL (Kinetochore null) Binding Protein.
   
   0.653
kbp-4
KNL (Kinetochore null) Binding Protein.
   
  
 0.651
bub-1
Mitotic checkpoint serine/threonine-protein kinase bub-1; Serine/threonine-protein kinase essential for spindle- assembly checkpoint signaling. Plays a key role in the recruitment of the checkpoint proteins bub-3, mdf-1 and mdf-2 to unattached kinetochores. mdf-1 recruitment is independent of bub-1 kinase activity. Has a role in the correct kinetochore localization of the spindly-like protein spdl-1. In addition, during meiotic anaphase I, controls the recruitment of hcp- 1/2 and klp-19 to the ring-shaped domain formed between chromosomes. Involved in chromosome alignment, chromosome h [...]
   
  
 0.575
kbp-3
Kinetochore-binding protein 3.
   
  
 0.570
cyn-10
Peptidyl-prolyl cis-trans isomerase 10; PPIases accelerate the folding of proteins. It catalyzes the cis-trans isomerization of proline imidic peptide bonds in oligopeptides.
   
    0.565
mis-12
Human/fission yeast MIS (MInichromosome Stability) homolog.
