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

hpx-2Heme peroxidase 2 heavy chain; Peroxidase which is involved in maintaining the cuticle integrity in the hypodermis and pharynx. It thus plays a role in conferring resistance against Gram-positive bacteria such as E.faecalis, S.aureus and C.diphtheriae, and yeast such as C.albicans. (718 aa)    
Predicted Functional Partners:
aqp-3
AQuaPorin or aquaglyceroporin related; Belongs to the MIP/aquaporin (TC 1.A.8) family.
    
 
 0.703
lys-3
Lysozyme-like protein 3; Plays a role in the stress response to heavy metals such as copper, probably in a kgb-1-dependent manner.
      
 0.534
rol-1
Col_cuticle_N domain-containing protein.
      
 0.468
F53A9.8
Uncharacterized protein.
