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

eat-5Innexin eat-5; Structural component of the gap junctions (By similarity). Required for synchronized pharyngeal muscle contractions. Belongs to the pannexin family. (423 aa)    
Predicted Functional Partners:
eat-18
Uncharacterized protein.
      
 0.759
F32B4.4
Pharyngeal muscle protein 2; Involved in pharyngeal muscle development and ensures pharyngeal grinder function during feeding. Plays a role in the defense against the accumulation of ingested live pathogenic bacteria in the intestine. Has a role in the determination of life span.
      
 0.666
pamn-1
Probable peptidyl-glycine alpha-amidating monooxygenase pamn-1; Probable bifunctional enzyme that catalyzes 2 sequential steps in C-terminal alpha-amidation of peptides. The monooxygenase part produces an unstable peptidyl(2-hydroxyglycine) intermediate that is dismutated to glyoxylate and the corresponding desglycine peptide amide by the lyase part. C-terminal amidation of peptides such as neuropeptides is essential for full biological activity; In the N-terminal section; belongs to the copper type II ascorbate-dependent monooxygenase family.

eat-2
Neuronal acetylcholine receptor subunit eat-2; After binding acetylcholine, the AChR responds by an extensive change in conformation that affects all subunits and leads to opening of an ion-conducting channel across the plasma membrane (By similarity). Nicotinic acetylcholine receptor in the MC pharyngeal motor neuron involved in pharyngeal pumping. Has a role in the determination of life span possibly via calorific restriction which affects growth rate, although this is independent of metabolic activity. Plays a role in the defense against the accumulation of ingested live pathogenic [...]

unc-36
Voltage-dependent calcium channel unc-36; May act as an auxiliary subunit of the unc-2 voltage-gated calcium channel which appears to trigger calcium-activated signaling pathways that control the serotonin response. Inhibiting serotonin sensitivity of the vulval muscles results in egg laying defects. May act in both neurons and muscle cells to enhance motor activity as it is required for coordinated movement. Has a role in neural depolarization- induced calcium influx and pharyngeal pumping. Involved in restricting the expression of the putative olfactory receptor str-2 to only one of [...]

pghm-1
Probable peptidylglycine alpha-hydroxylating monooxygenase 1; Monooxygenase that catalyzes an essential reaction in C- terminal alpha-amidation of peptides. Produces an unstable peptidyl(2- hydroxyglycine) intermediate. C-terminal amidation of peptides such as neuropeptides is essential for full biological activity. Belongs to the copper type II ascorbate-dependent monooxygenase family.
