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

dnpp-1Aspartyl aminopeptidase; Aminopeptidase with specificity towards an acidic amino acid at the N-terminus. Plays a role in membrane trafficking and is specifically involved in the recycling and degradation of endocytic cargo. (507 aa)    
Predicted Functional Partners:
atg-9
Autophagy-related protein 9; Involved in autophagy and cytoplasm to vacuole transport (Cvt) vesicle formation. Plays a key role in the organization of the preautophagosomal structure/phagophore assembly site (PAS), the nucleating site for formation of the sequestering vesicle. Belongs to the ATG9 family.

chat-1
CDC50 family protein chat-1; Probable chaperone protein for the phospholipid-transporting ATPase tat-1. Regulates cell membrane structure and function. Plays a role in maintaining the membrane phosphatidylserine asymmetry and the formation of the tubular membrane structure. Involved in membrane trafficking and is specifically involved in the recycling and degradation of endocytic cargo and this is likely with the phospholipid-transporting ATPase tat-1.
   
  
 0.701
lap-1
Leucine aminopeptidase 1; Probably acts as a digestive enzyme.
  
 
 0.653
app-1
Xaa-Pro aminopeptidase app-1; Catalyzes the removal of a penultimate prolyl residue from the N-termini of peptides, such as Arg-Pro-Pro. Has activity towards the flp-9 neuropeptide KPSFVRF- amide.
  
 
 0.638
sqst-2
ZZ-type domain-containing protein.
    
 
 0.614
lgg-1
Protein lgg-1; Ubiquitin-like modifier involved in the formation of autophagosomal vacuoles (autophagosomes). When lipidated mediates tethering between adjacent membranes and stimulates membrane fusion during autophagy. Recruits lipidated-lgg-2 to maturing autophagosomes. Acts in the aggrephagy pathway, which is the macroautophagic degradation of ubiquitinated protein aggregates, and preferentially interacts with autophagy proteins and substrates containing LIR motifs to mediate autophagosome formation and protein aggregate degradation. In particular, binds to components of the unc-51- [...]

lgg-2
Protein lgg-2; Ubiquitin-like modifier involved in the formation of autophagosomal vacuoles (autophagosomes). When lipidated mediates tethering between adjacent membranes and stimulates membrane fusion. Less effective at promoting membrane fusion than lgg-1. Acts upstream of the autophagy protein epg-5 in the aggrephagy pathway, which is the macroautophagic degradation of ubiquitinated protein aggregates, and preferentially interacts with autophagy proteins and substrates containing LIR motifs to mediate autophagosome formation and protein aggregate degradation. In particular binds to [...]
   
 
 0.589
atg-7
Ubiquitin-like modifier-activating enzyme ATG7; E1-like activating enzyme involved in the 2 ubiquitin-like systems required for autophagy.
      
 0.574
kle-2
Condensin-2 complex subunit kle-2; Regulatory subunit of the condensin II complex, a complex that seems to play a role in prophase chromosome condensation and in chromosome segregation in mitosis and in meiosis.
      
 0.565
R119.2
AMP_N domain-containing protein.
     
 0.560
