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

sdc-2Sex determination and dosage compensation protein sdc-2; Component of the SDC complex that functions in sex determination and in X chromosome dosage compensation specifically in hermaphrodite (XX) animals. Required for the recruitment of the condensin I-like dosage compensation complex to the male sex-determining autosomal gene her-1, thereby contributing to its repression and initiating hermaphrodite sexual development. Plays a central role in X-chromosome recognition and in the recruitment and assembly of the dosage compensation complex and the dosage compensation protein dpy-21 onto [...] (2962 aa)

sdc-3
Zinc finger protein sdc-3; Component of the SDC complex that functions in sex determination and in X chromosome dosage compensation specifically in hermaphrodite (XX) animals. Plays a central role in the recruitment of the condensin I-like dosage compensation complex to the male sex-determining autosomal gene her-1, thereby contributing to its repression and initiating hermaphrodite sexual development. Involved in the recruitment and assembly of the dosage compensation complex and the dosage compensation protein dpy-21 onto the X chromosomes in hermaphrodites, which leads to a reductio [...]

sdc-1
Zinc finger protein sdc-1; Embryonic transcription factor regulating downstream genes involved specifically in the sex determination and dosage compensation pathways, or regulating other genes involved in the coordinate control of both processes. Component of the SDC complex that functions in sex determination and in X chromosome dosage compensation specifically in hermaphrodite (XX) animals. Involved in the recruitment of the condensin I-like dosage compensation complex to the male sex-determining autosomal gene her-1, thereby contributing to its repression and initiating hermaphrodit [...]

dpy-30
Dosage compensation protein dpy-30; Essential for dosage compensation. Required for the sex-specific association of the dosage compensation complex proteins dpy-27 and dpy-26 with the hermaphrodite X chromosomes. Plays a role in developmental rate and body fat regulation downstream of the TOR complex 2. Required for the robust transdifferentiation of the Y rectal cell to the PDA motor neuron during larval development.

dpy-21
Lysine-specific demethylase 9; Histone demethylase that specifically demethylates dimethylated 'Lys-20' of histone H4 (H4K20me2), thereby modulating the chromosome architecture. Promotes chromatin compaction by converting H4k20me2 to H4K20me1 leading to transcriptional repression. Required for X chromosome dosage compensation by enriching H4K20me1 on X chromosomes and thereby reducing X-linked gene transcription in hermaphrodites throughout development. X chromosome specificity is mediated by the recruitment through proteins of the condensin-like dosage compensation complex (DCC). Requ [...]

dpy-27
Chromosome condensation protein dpy-27; Central component of the condensin I-like dosage compensation complex that associates specifically with hermaphrodite X chromosomes to reduce their gene transcription throughout development. Its strong similarity with the condensin subunit smc4 suggests that it may reduce the X-chromosome transcript level by condensing the chromatin structure during interphase. Involved in the recruitment of the dosage compensation proteins mix-1 and dpy-21 to the X chromosome. Might be involved in the reduction of histone H4 lysine 16 acetylation (H4K16ac) on do [...]

mix-1
Mitotic chromosome and X-chromosome-associated protein mix-1; Essential protein required for both chromosome condensation and segregation and X-chromosome dosage compensation depending on its binding partners. Central component of the condensin I complex, a complex required for conversion of interphase chromatin into mitotic-like condense chromosomes. The condensin complex introduces positive supercoils into relaxed DNA in the presence of type I topoisomerases. Converts nicked DNA into positive knotted forms in the presence of type II topoisomerases (By similarity). Central component o [...]

dpy-26
Condensin complex subunit dpy-26; Required for both chromosome condensation and segregation and for X-chromosome dosage compensation depending on its binding partners. Member of the condensin I complex, a complex required for conversion of interphase chromatin into mitotic-like condense chromosomes and for proper chromosome segregation in mitosis and meiosis. As a member of the condensin I complex, further controls the crossover number and distribution in meiosis by restricting double strand break formation, probably by influencing higher-order chromosome structure. Plays a role in rob [...]

dpy-28
Condensin complex subunit 1; Required for both chromosome condensation and segregation during mitosis and meiosis and X-chromosome dosage compensation depending on its binding partners. Regulatory subunit of the condensin I complex, a complex required for conversion of interphase chromatin into mitotic-like condense chromosomes. The condensin I complex probably introduces positive supercoils into relaxed DNA in the presence of type I topoisomerases and converts nicked DNA into positive knotted forms in the presence of type II topoisomerases (By similarity). The condensin I complex func [...]

xol-1
XO lethal protein 1; Acts as a primary sex-determining factor that promotes sexual differentiation. Absolutely required for proper sexual differentiation and male viability. High expression during gastrulation triggers male development, while low expression at that time triggers hermaphrodite development. Although related to GHMP kinase, its mode of action remains unclear; Belongs to the GHMP kinase family. Xol-1 subfamily.

Condensin complex subunit capg-1; Member of two distinct condensin I complexes, the condensin I complex and the condensin I-like dosage compensation complex. The condensin I complex is required for conversion of interphase chromatin into mitotic-like condensed chromosomes and for chromosome segregation in meiosis and mitosis. As a member of the condensin I complex, further controls crossover number and distribution in meiosis by restricting double strand break formation, probably by influencing higher-order chromosome structure. Regulatory subunit of the condensin I-like dosage compens [...]
