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

F14B4.1Uncharacterized protein. (722 aa)    
Predicted Functional Partners:
let-23
Receptor tyrosine-protein kinase let-23; Tyrosine-protein kinase receptor which, upon binding ligand lin-3, activates 2 signaling cascades: the let-60/Ras and MAP kinase signaling pathway and the let-60-independent phospholipase C-mediated Ca(2+) signaling pathway. Each pathway regulates distinct functions. By activating let-60/Ras, regulates larval development, induction of vulva cell precursors during vulva development, male spicule formation and posterior development of the epidermis. Probably by activating phospholipase plc-3 and inositol 1,4,5-trisphosphate receptor itr-1 signalin [...]
   
 0.856
nipi-4
Protein nipi-4; Pseudokinase which plays a role in resistance to fungal infection by promoting expression of antimicrobial peptides (nlp-29, nlp-31, nlp-34, cnc-1, cnc-2 and cnc-4) in the epidermis. In addition, up-regulates nlp-29 expression upon physical wounding and in response to phorbol ester PMA treatment; Belongs to the protein kinase superfamily. Tyr protein kinase family.
   
 0.641
dsl-6
Delta-like protein; Putative Notch ligand involved in the mediation of Notch signaling.
   
 
 0.635
egg-1
LDL receptor repeat-containing protein egg-1; Probable receptor which is required for the oocyte-to-zygote transition although its exact function is controversial. Redundantly with egg-2, seems to be required for fertilization probably by promoting the interaction or fusion between sperm and oocyte. Conversely, shown to be dispensable for fertilization but required together with egg-2 for the formation of a continuous and cohesive eggshell chitin layer by maintaining a homogenous distribution of chitin synthase chs-1 at the unfertilized oocyte cell membrane. Appears to recruit or maint [...]
 
     
0.593
chc-1
Probable clathrin heavy chain 1; Clathrin is the major protein of the polyhedral coat of coated pits and vesicles (By similarity). May play a role in yolk protein clatherin-mediated endocytosis by oocytes during oogenesis ; Belongs to the clathrin heavy chain family.
     
 0.583
Y41D4B.26
Uncharacterized protein.
   
 
 0.539
itsn-1
ITSN (Intersectin) family.
    
 0.530
ced-10
Ras-related protein ced-10; Required in engulfing to control the phagocytosis of apoptotic cell corpses. Required in embryonic development for the correct positioning and orientation of the mitotic spindles and division planes in blastomere cells. Involved in hypodermal cell fusion, together with pak-1 and cdc-42, leading to embryonic body elongation, which involves dramatic cytoskeletal reorganization. ced-2 and ced-5 function to activate ced-10 in a GTPase signaling pathway that controls the polarized extension of cell surfaces. Plays a redundant role with mig-2 in dorsal axonal guid [...]
    
 0.523
cdc-42
Cell division control protein 42 homolog; Plays an essential role in spindle orientation and organizing cellular and embryonic polarity by controlling the localization and activity of PAR (partitioning-defective) proteins. Required for maintaining the asymmetric cortical localization of the anterior complex proteins par-3 and par-6, the posterior cortical protein par-2, and pkc-3. Involved in hypodermal cell fusion, together with pak-1 and ced-10, leading to embryonic body elongation, which involves dramatic cytoskeletal reorganization. During gonad morphogenesis, plays a role in dista [...]
    
 0.523
rho-1
Ras-like GTP-binding protein rhoA; Required for ventral migration of epidermal cells during ventral enclosure in the embryo and for cell elongation. Also required for ventral migration of P cells during larval development. Involved in asymmetric spindle positioning during anaphase and establishment of cell polarity during embryo development. In adults, involved in regulation of multiple processes including locomotion, pharyngeal pumping, fecundity, ovulation, defecation and body morphology. In body wall muscles, regulates organization of myosin thick filaments downstream of unc-89. Ass [...]
