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

nhr-6Nuclear hormone receptor family member nhr-6; Transcriptional activator that induces gene expression by binding to the NGFI-B response element (NBRE) 5'-AAAGGTCA-3'. Required for proper morphogenesis of the spermatheca and the spermatheca-uterine valve formation. Promotes cell proliferation and differentiation of the spermatheca precursor cells during spermatheca development in larval stage L4. Might play a role in promoting G1/S phase progression in the spermatheca precursor cell lineage. Also required for the differentiation of the spermatheca-uterine junction core (sujc) cells which [...] (619 aa)    
Predicted Functional Partners:
akt-2
Serine/threonine-protein kinase akt-2; Acts downstream of PI3 kinase age-1 and kinase pdk-1 in the daf-2/insulin receptor-like transduction pathway. Essential role in regulating developmental arrest at the dauer stage. Phosphorylates Forkhead-related daf- 16 and the longevity-promoting skn-1 transcription factors, which inhibits their entry into the nucleus and antagonizes their functions. Role in immune function and pathogen resistance. Downstream of age-1 and together with akt-2 and sgk-1, promotes cell survival during embryonic development. Belongs to the protein kinase superfamily. [...]

akt-1
Serine/threonine-protein kinase akt-1; Acts downstream of PI3 kinase age-1 and kinase pdk-1 in the daf-2/insulin receptor-like transduction pathway. Phosphorylates Forkhead-related daf-16 and the longevity-promoting skn-1 transcription factors, which inhibits their entry into the nucleus and antagonizes their functions. Has an essential role in regulating developmental arrest at the dauer stage. Plays a role in immune function and pathogen resistance. Regulates salt chemotaxis learning. Downstream of age-1 and together with akt-2 and sgk-1, promotes cell survival during embryonic devel [...]

blmp-1
B lymphocyte-induced maturation protein 1 homolog; Transcription factor which binds to enhancer elements in the promoter region of genes. Regulates the expression of the transcription factor bed-3 to control vulval development. Promotes terminal differentiation in the hypodermis and is involved in regulation of gonadal outgrowth and entry into the dauer stage. Regulates the timing of dorsalward migration of the distal tip cells of the hermaphrodite gonad by inhibiting precocious unc-5 and lin-29 expression which in turn prevents early dorsalward turning. Plays a role in male tail tip m [...]

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.
   
 
 0.664
gei-8
Nuclear receptor corepressor 1; Mediates transcriptional repression by certain nuclear receptors. Plays a role in development and neuronal function. May play a role in muscle-specific oxidative mitochondrial metabolism.
    
 0.618
cgef-1
DH domain-containing protein.
   
  
 0.531
ceh-14
Homeobox protein ceh-14; Confers thermosensory function to neurons. Required for correct AFD-mediated thermotaxis.
      
 0.517
fos-1
Transcription factor fos-1; Developmentally regulated transcription factor which binds and recognizes the enhancer DNA sequence 5'-TGA[CG]TCA-3'. [Isoform b]: Required for ovulation. Controls plc-1 expression in the spermatheca to regulate spermathecal valve dilation. Acts with hda-1 as a downstream repressor of the kgb-1 mediated stress response pathway that transcriptionally represses genes involved in the response to heavy metals, such as kreg-1 ; Belongs to the bZIP family. Fos subfamily.
