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

ceh-17Homeobox domain-containing protein. (237 aa)    
Predicted Functional Partners:
aptf-1
Transcription factor aptf-1; Transcription factor, which is required in the single sleep- active ring interneuron RIS for sleep-like behavioral quiescence induced by neuropeptide signaling in larvae. Regulates gene expression of sleep-inducing FMRFamide-like neuropeptide flp-11 in RIS.
   
  
 0.870
ceh-14
Homeobox protein ceh-14; Confers thermosensory function to neurons. Required for correct AFD-mediated thermotaxis.
      
 0.825
lin-3
Protein lin-3; Probable ligand for tyrosine kinase receptor let-23. Essential for vulval induction, where it acts downstream of the synthetic multivulva (synMuv) class genes. Probably by activating let-23, phospholipase plc-3 and inositol 1,4,5-trisphosphate receptor itr-1 signaling cascade, plays a role in ovulation by promoting gonadal sheath cell contractions and spermatheca dilatation during ovulation. Probably by regulating neuronal transmission in ALA neurons, mediates the decrease in pharyngeal pumping and locomotion during the quiescent state that precedes each larval molt, by [...]

flp-7
FMRFamide-like neuropeptides 7; FMRFamides and FMRFamide-like peptides are neuropeptides. flp-7 stimulates serotonin-induced fat loss by binding to and activating the npr-22 receptor which leads to induction of the atgl-1 lipase and subsequent fat loss. SPMQRSSMVRF-amide: Acts as a ligand for the npr-22 receptor in vitro. [SPMDRSKMVRF-amide]: Acts as a ligand for the npr-22 receptor in vitro.
      
 0.660
flp-24
FMRFamide-like neuropeptides 24; FMRFamides and FMRFamide-like peptides are neuropeptides.
      
 0.611
egl-46
C2H2-type domain-containing protein.
   
  
 0.606
cat-2
Tyrosine 3-monooxygenase; Involved in the synthesis of catecholamines, such as dopamine. Has a role in serotonin signaling. Required for normal explorative and foraging behavior.
   
  
 0.595
egl-4
cGMP-dependent protein kinase egl-4; Promotes chemoreceptor gene expression in response to increased cGMP levels by antagonizing the gene repression functions of the class II HDAC hda-4 and the mef-2 transcription factor. Regulates gene expression via recruitment of a histone deacetylase complex containing hda-2, saeg-1 and saeg-2. Represses body size and lifespan through the dbl-1 and insulin pathways, respectively. May also signal through daf-3 and/or daf-5. Role in egg-laying, dauer formation and motility. Regulates behavioral responses to various chemosensory stimuli in sensory neu [...]
   
  
 0.587
nhr-185
Nuclear Hormone Receptor family.
      
 0.539
flp-11
FMRFamide-like neuropeptides 11; FMRFamides and FMRFamide-like peptides are neuropeptides. [ASGGMRNALVRF-amide]: Acts as a ligand for the npr-22 receptor in vitro; Belongs to the FARP (FMRFamide related peptide) family.
