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

clh-3Chloride 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 [...] (1091 aa)    
Predicted Functional Partners:
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. [...]

C24H11.1
Serine/threonine-protein phosphatase.
   
  
 0.810
nkcc-1
Na-K-Cl Cotransporter homolog.
  
  
 0.771
wnk-1
Serine/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.
