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

lonp-1Lon protease homolog, mitochondrial; ATP-dependent serine protease that mediates the selective degradation of misfolded, unassembled or oxidatively damaged polypeptides as well as certain short-lived regulatory proteins in the mitochondrial matrix. May also have a chaperone function in the assembly of inner membrane protein complexes. Participates in the regulation of mitochondrial gene expression and in the maintenance of the integrity of the mitochondrial genome. Binds to mitochondrial DNA in a site-specific manner. Involved in the degradation of transcription factor atfs-1 in the mi [...] (971 aa)    
Predicted Functional Partners:
clpp-1
ATP-dependent Clp protease proteolytic subunit 1, mitochondrial; Clp cleaves peptides in various proteins in a process that requires ATP hydrolysis. Clp may be responsible for a fairly general and central housekeeping function rather than for the degradation of specific substrates; Belongs to the peptidase S14 family.
  
 
 0.945
spg-7
AFG3-like protein spg-7; Acts as a component of the m-AAA protease complex which is an ATP-dependent metalloprotease mediating degradation of non-assembled mitochondrial inner membrane proteins (By similarity). The complex is necessary for the assembly of mitochondrial respiratory chain and ATPase complexes (By similarity). Functions both in post-translational assembly and in the turnover of mistranslated or misfolded polypeptides. Plays a role in male tail tip morphogenesis. In the C-terminal section; belongs to the peptidase M41 family.
  
 
 0.916
atf-5
BZIP domain-containing protein.
      
 0.912
ymel-1
ATP-dependent zinc metalloprotease YME1 homolog; ATP-dependent metalloprotease that catalyzes the degradation of folded and unfolded proteins with a suitable degron sequence in the mitochondrial intermembrane region (By similarity). Plays an important role in regulating mitochondrial morphology and function (By similarity); In the C-terminal section; belongs to the peptidase M41 family.
  
 
 0.900
atfs-1
Stress activated transcription factor atfs-1; Acts as a transcription factor during mitochondrial stress by activating the mitochondrial unfolded protein response (mtUPR). Induces nuclear and mitochondrial gene transcription, including genes coding for mitochondrial chaperones and proteins involved in glycolysis, amino acid catabolism and innate immunity. Following mitochondrial stress, restores mitochondrial respiratory capacity by limiting the transcription of oxidative phosphorylation (OXPHOS) machinery genes and by promoting the assembly of OXPHOS complexes via the up-regulation of [...]

hsp-60
Chaperonin homolog Hsp-60, mitochondrial; Implicated in mitochondrial protein import and macromolecular assembly. May facilitate the correct folding of imported proteins. May also prevent misfolding and promote the refolding and proper assembly of unfolded polypeptides generated under stress conditions in the mitochondrial matrix (By similarity).
  
 
 0.860
C34C12.8
GrpE protein homolog, mitochondrial; Essential component of the PAM complex, a complex required for the translocation of transit peptide-containing proteins from the inner membrane into the mitochondrial matrix in an ATP-dependent manner. Seems to control the nucleotide-dependent binding of mitochondrial HSP70 to substrate proteins (By similarity).
  
  
 0.856
eral-1
Uncharacterized GTP-binding protein E02H1.2; Belongs to the TRAFAC class TrmE-Era-EngA-EngB-Septin-like GTPase superfamily. Era GTPase family.
  
 
 0.804
hsp-70
Heat Shock Protein; Belongs to the heat shock protein 70 family.
