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

sop-2Polycomb protein sop-2; Polycomb group (PcG) protein. PcG proteins act by forming multiprotein complexes, which are required to maintain the transcriptionally repressive state of homeotic genes throughout development. PcG proteins are not required to initiate repression, but to maintain it during later stages of development. Also required to repress expression of other genes and for localization of sor-1. Binds RNA. (737 aa)    
Predicted Functional Partners:
sor-1
Sop-2-related protein 1; Acts synergistically with sop-2 to maintain the transcriptionally repressive state of homeotic genes throughout development. Not required to initiate repression, but to maintain it during later stages of development. Also required to repress expression of other genes. Binds RNA in a sequence-independent manner.
   
 
 0.934
egl-5
Homeobox protein egl-5; Essential for the determination of specific neurons.
   
 
 0.758
sor-3
Sop-2-related protein 3; Probably acts synergistically with sop-2 to maintain the transcriptionally repressive state of homeotic genes in order to regulate various neurogenic identities. Specification of some neuronal identities also involves expression of non-Hox genes. Specifies dopaminergic and serotonergic neuronal cell fate, and regulates neurotransmitter choice and axon pathfinding.
   
  
 0.704
ubc-9
SUMO-conjugating enzyme UBC9; Accepts the ubiquitin-like protein smo-1 from the aos-1-uba-2 E1 complex and catalyzes its covalent attachment to other proteins with the help of an E3 ligase such as gei-17. Required to sumoylate the ETS transcription factor lin-1 and the Polycomb protein sop-2. Required for embryonic development, fertility, vulval morphogenesis and inhibition of vulval cell fates. Belongs to the ubiquitin-conjugating enzyme family.

C11D2.7
PUA domain-containing protein.
      
 0.660
C15C6.4
Ribonuclease P protein subunit p29; Component of ribonuclease P, a ribonucleoprotein complex that generates mature tRNA molecules by cleaving their 5'-ends.
   
  
 0.660
T03G11.3
Zinc finger C2HC domain-containing protein T03G11.3; Belongs to the ZC2HC1 family.
      
 0.660
Y82E9BR.19
F-box domain-containing protein.
      
 0.660
mes-6
Polycomb protein mes-6; Polycomb group (PcG) protein. PcG proteins act by forming multiprotein complexes, which are required to maintain the transcriptionally repressive state of homeotic genes throughout development. PcG proteins are not required to initiate repression, but to maintain it during later stages of development. The mes-2/mes-3/mes- 6 complex may participate in the global inactivation of the X chromosomes in germline cells. The complex may act via methylation of histone H3 'Lys-27', rendering chromatin heritably changed in its expressibility. This complex is required to ex [...]
    
 
 0.635
cdl-1
Histone RNA hairpin-binding protein; Involved in histone pre-mRNA 3' processing. Required for chromosome condensation, progression of cell death and morphogenesis.
