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

nlg-1Neuroligin-1; Probable neuronal cell surface protein thought to be involved in cell-cell-interactions by forming intercellular junctions through binding to beta-neurexins (By similarity). Plays a role in the clustering of the GABA(A) receptor unc-49 at postsynaptic sites in neuromuscular junctions (NMJs) via the interaction with madd-4 and neurexin nrx-1 and is thereby required for normal GABAergic synaptic transmission. Belongs to the type-B carboxylesterase/lipase family. (847 aa)    
Predicted Functional Partners:
nrx-1
NeuReXin related.

glit-1
Neuroligin-like protein glit-1; Probable neuronal cell surface protein thought to be involved in cell-cell-interactions (Probable). Confers protection against oxidative stress. Plays a role in protecting dopaminergic neurons against oxidative stress-induced neurodegeneration ; Belongs to the type-B carboxylesterase/lipase family.

madd-4
Protein madd-4; Component of an extracellular matrix cue that is involved in the guidance of dorsoventral midline migrations and in the specification of postsynaptic domains at neuromuscular junctions (NMJs). Acts as a ligand for the netrin receptor unc-40 and the neuroligin receptor nlg-1. Secreted by the dorsal and ventral nerve cords to attract sensory axons and muscle membrane extensions called muscle arms. In parallel with unc-6 and slt-1, involved in the netrin receptor unc-40 dependent guidance of the AVM and PVM mechanosensory axons along the dorsal-ventral axis. The unc-40 cor [...]

moc-1
Molybdopterin molybdenumtransferase; Catalyzes two steps in the biosynthesis of the molybdenum cofactor. In the first step, molybdopterin is adenylated. Subsequently, molybdate is inserted into adenylated molybdopterin and AMP is released.
      
 0.817
rig-3
Neuronal immunoglobulin domain-containing protein rig-3; Cell surface protein which plays a role in the plasticity of cholinergic synapses at neuromuscular junctions and in the polarity of the mechanosensory neuron ALM, possibly by antagonizing Wnt signaling.
   
 
 0.749
frm-3
FERM domain-containing protein.
   
  
 0.722
lin-2
Protein lin-2; May play a structural role in the induction of the vulva. May be required for the localization of signal transduction molecules (such as let-23 receptor) to either the basal membrane domain or the cell junctions.
   
 0.706
unc-6
Netrin unc-6; Component of an extracellular matrix cue that guides dorsoventral migrations on the epidermis. Required for the guidance of pioneer axons and migrating cells along the body wall. During gonad morphogenesis, involved in distal tip cell (DTC) migration from the dorsal side of the hermaphrodite body to the midbody to allow for formation of gonad arms. Its association with either unc-40 or unc-5 receptors will lead to axon attraction or repulsion, respectively. Involved in the positioning of ray 1, the most anterior ray sensilium, in the male tail. Required for the formation [...]

unc-49
Ionotropic GABA receptor subunit UNC-49B.3; Belongs to the ligand-gated ion channel (TC 1.A.9) family.

unc-40
Unc-40 protein.
