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

wnk-1Serine/threonine-protein kinase WNK; Serine/threonine-protein kinase which phosphorylates gck-3. Plays a role in osmotic stress responses during which it increases gpdh-1 translation, likely by phosphorylating gck-3. Essential for larval development and the tubular formation of the excretory canals. (1850 aa)    
Predicted Functional Partners:
nkcc-1
Na-K-Cl Cotransporter homolog.

gck-3
Germinal center kinase 3; Plays a role in osmotic stress responses by regulating ion homeostasis and by controlling cell volume via the phosphorylation- mediated inhibition of the chloride channel clh-3. In addition, increases gpdh-1 translation upon osmotic stress, likely downstream of wnk-1. Involved in several developmental processes including the tubular formation of the excretory canals, the formation of the intestine and the progression through larval stages. In addition, required for germ line development by controlling meiosis and chromosomal segregation during spermatogenesis. [...]

jun-1
Transcription factor jun-1; Transcription factor that recognizes and binds to the AP-1 non-canonical enhancer heptamer motif 5'-TTAGTCA-3'. Required for ovulation. Controls plc-1 expression in the spermatheca to regulate spermathecal valve dilation.

clh-3
Chloride channel protein clh-3; [Isoform a]: Voltage-gated chloride channel. Insensitive to depolarizing conditioning voltages, requires low voltages for activation, insensitive to chloride levels and has a mild sensitivity to low pH. Channel gating properties are conferred by the cytoplasmic C-terminus. Plays a role in egg laying by modulating hermaphrodite-specific neurons (HSN) excitability and the ovulatory contractions of gap-junction-coupled gonadal sheath cells. When active, may prevent tubular formation of the excretory canals. Activated during oocyte meiotic maturation and by [...]

rgr-1
Mediator of RNA polymerase II transcription subunit 14; Component of the Mediator complex, a coactivator involved in the regulated transcription of nearly all RNA polymerase II-dependent genes. Mediator functions as a bridge to convey information from gene- specific regulatory proteins to the basal RNA polymerase II transcription machinery. Mediator is recruited to promoters by direct interactions with regulatory proteins and serves as a scaffold for the assembly of a functional preinitiation complex with RNA polymerase II and the general transcription factors (By similarity). Required [...]
