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

cbd-1
Chitin-binding domain protein cbd-1; In unfertilized oocytes, maintains egg-1 and egg-2 at the plasma membrane together with chitin synthase chs-1 and kinase mbk-2. Essential for the formation of a continuous and cohesive chitin layer following fertilization.

vit-2
Vitellogenin-2; Precursor of the egg-yolk proteins that are sources of nutrients during embryonic development.
   
    0.846
F48E3.4
Peptidase S1 domain-containing protein.
   
    0.846
ZC373.2
Uncharacterized protein.

D1054.10
Uncharacterized protein.

cpg-1
Chondroitin proteoglycan 1; Required for polar body extrusion during cytokinesis in embryo development. Affects cortical granule size. Has roles in meiotic chromosome segregation, osmotic barrier function and polarization in conjunction with cpg-2. Binds chitin.
   
  
 0.812
cpg-2
Chondroitin proteoglycan-2; Required for polar body extrusion during cytokinesis in embryo development. Affects cortical granule size. Has roles in meiotic chromosome segregation, osmotic barrier function and polarization in conjunction with cpg-2. Binds chitin.

perm-3
ER membrane protein complex subunit 4; Belongs to the EMC4 family.
      
 0.806
egg-1
LDL receptor repeat-containing protein egg-1; Probable receptor which is required for the oocyte-to-zygote transition although its exact function is controversial. Redundantly with egg-2, seems to be required for fertilization probably by promoting the interaction or fusion between sperm and oocyte. Conversely, shown to be dispensable for fertilization but required together with egg-2 for the formation of a continuous and cohesive eggshell chitin layer by maintaining a homogenous distribution of chitin synthase chs-1 at the unfertilized oocyte cell membrane. Appears to recruit or maint [...]
