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

glr-7GLutamate Receptor family (AMPA); Belongs to the glutamate-gated ion channel (TC 1.A.10.1) family. (885 aa)    
Predicted Functional Partners:
glr-1
Glutamate receptor 1; Non-NMDA (N-methyl-D-aspartate) ionotropic glutamate receptor. L-glutamate acts as an excitatory neurotransmitter at many synapses in the central nervous system. The postsynaptic actions of glutamate are mediated by a variety of receptors that are named according to their selective agonists. May contribute to a sensory discrimination between mechanical and chemical stimuli. Plays a role in controlling movement in response to environmental cues such as food availability and mechanosensory stimulation such as the nose touch response. In AIB interneurons, promotes om [...]

B0280.7
Uncharacterized protein B0280.7.
      
 0.697
flr-2
CTCK domain-containing protein.

gur-5
GUstatory Receptor family.
      
 0.589
gur-4
GUstatory Receptor family.
      
 0.539
gars-1
Glycine--tRNA ligase; Catalyzes the ATP-dependent ligation of glycine to the 3'-end of its cognate tRNA, via the formation of an aminoacyl-adenylate intermediate (Gly-AMP). Also produces diadenosine tetraphosphate (Ap4A), a universal pleiotropic signaling molecule needed for cell regulation pathways, by direct condensation of 2 ATPs. Thereby, may play a special role in Ap4A homeostasis. Belongs to the class-II aminoacyl-tRNA synthetase family.
      
 0.537
glr-2
Glutamate receptor 2; L-glutamate acts as an excitatory neurotransmitter at many synapses in the central nervous system. The postsynaptic actions of glutamate are mediated by a variety of receptors that are named according to their selective agonists. Required for response to mechanical and osmotic stimuli; Belongs to the glutamate-gated ion channel (TC 1.A.10.1) family.
    
0.501
ggr-2
GABA/Glycine Receptor family (See gbr); Belongs to the ligand-gated ion channel (TC 1.A.9) family.
      
 0.461
tdc-1
Tyrosine decarboxylase; Required for the decarboxylation of tyrosine to tyramine, a precursor of octopamine but probably also itself a neurotransmitter. Involved in the regulation of egg laying, which is inhibited by tyramine. Also involved in controlling locomotion and head movements. Due to its involvement in octopamine biosynthesis, also required for crtc-1-dependent regulation of AMPK-mediated longevity which requires octopamine signaling ; Belongs to the group II decarboxylase family.
