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

dhc-1
Dynein heavy chain, cytoplasmic; Cytoplasmic dynein acts as a motor for the intracellular retrograde motility of vesicles and organelles along microtubules (By similarity). Dynein has ATPase activity; the force-producing power stroke is thought to occur on release of ADP (By similarity). May play a role in nuclear migration in hypodermal precursor cells. May be involved in the transport of synaptic vesicle components towards the axon of the DA motor neuron. This function may involve the regulation of dynein by pct-1 and/or cdk-5. Involved in the formation of synapses in the dorsal regi [...]

che-3
Cytoplasmic dynein 2 heavy chain 1; Functions as a motor for intraflagellar retrograde transport in chemosensory neurons. Functions in cilia biogenesis. Belongs to the dynein heavy chain family.
   
 0.780
zyg-8
Serine/threonine-protein kinase zyg-8; Plays a role in spindle positioning during asymmetric division of one-cell stage embryos. Affects spindle position by promoting microtubule assembly during anaphase.
