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

egl-2Uncharacterized protein. (959 aa)    
Predicted Functional Partners:
unc-43
Calcium/calmodulin-dependent protein kinase type II; Acts in the signaling of a variety of pathways and processes. Phosphorylates 'Ser-319' of daf-16 in response to stress signals, such as heat, starvation and oxidation, which plays a role in prolonging lifespan. Required for viability under chronic osmotic stress in which it acts downstream of osr-1. Has roles in locomotion, oocyte maturation, brood size, egg laying, defecation, meiotic maturation and neuronal cell fate specification. Required for the regulation of synaptic density and neuromuscular junction morphology. Regulates the [...]

cmd-1
Calmodulin; Calmodulin mediates the control of a large number of enzymes, ion channels and other proteins by Ca(2+). Among the enzymes to be stimulated by the calmodulin-Ca(2+) complex are a number of protein kinases and phosphatases.
   
 
 0.885
T27C10.9
Uncharacterized protein.
   
 
 0.867
lin-2
Protein lin-2; May play a structural role in the induction of the vulva. May be required for the localization of signal transduction molecules (such as let-23 receptor) to either the basal membrane domain or the cell junctions.
   
 
 0.774
slo-1
Calcium-activated potassium channel slo-1; Potassium channel activated by both membrane depolarization or increase in cytosolic Ca(2+) that mediates export of K(+). Its activation dampens the excitatory events that elevate the cytosolic Ca(2+) concentration and/or depolarize the cell membrane. It therefore contributes to repolarization of the membrane potential. Essential for the regulation of neurotransmitter release at synapses.
   
  
 0.729
pha-1
Pha-1 protein.
      
 0.691
lite-1
High-energy light unresponsive protein 1; Photoreceptor for short wavelength (UV) light that mediates UV-light-induced avoidance behavior. Directly senses and absorbs both UV-A and UV-B light with very high efficiency. Absorption of UV-B but not UV-A light shows resistance to photobleaching. In contrast to other photoreceptors, does not use a prosthetic chromophore to capture photons and only depends on its protein conformation.
      
 0.690
shl-1
BTB domain-containing protein; Belongs to the potassium channel family.
   
 
 0.621
kqt-3
Potassium channel, KvQLT family; Belongs to the potassium channel family.
   
 
 0.570
kvs-1
Uncharacterized protein; Belongs to the potassium channel family.
