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

rgs-2Regulator of G-protein signaling rgs-2; Weakly inhibits G protein signaling in nervous system, interacting preferentially with the G(O) subfamily member goa-1. In vitro, it acts as a GTPase activator of goa-1. Rgs-1 and rgs-2 redundantly adjust signaling when worms are fed to allow rapid induction of egg-laying behavior. Modulates chemotaxis responses by regulating negatively the sensitivity to quinine in ASH sensory neurons. (181 aa)    
Predicted Functional Partners:
rgs-11
Regulator of G-protein signaling rgs-11.

egl-30
Heterotrimeric G protein alpha subunit.
   
 0.854
gpa-5
Guanine nucleotide-binding protein alpha-5 subunit; Guanine nucleotide-binding proteins (G proteins) are involved as modulators or transducers in various transmembrane signaling systems; Belongs to the G-alpha family.
   
 0.810
gpb-2
Guanine nucleotide-binding protein subunit beta-2; Guanine nucleotide-binding proteins (G proteins) are involved as a modulator or transducer in various transmembrane signaling systems. The beta and gamma chains are required for the GTPase activity, for replacement of GDP by GTP, and for G protein-effector interaction.
   
 0.781
gpb-1
Guanine nucleotide-binding protein subunit beta-1; Guanine nucleotide-binding proteins (G proteins) are involved as a modulator or transducer in various transmembrane signaling systems. The beta and gamma chains are required for the GTPase activity, for replacement of GDP by GTP, and for G protein-effector interaction. In the early embryo, controls the magnitude of the forces acting on centrosomes but is not required for generating asymmetric forces.
   
 0.749
gpa-16
Guanine nucleotide-binding protein alpha-16 subunit; Guanine nucleotide-binding proteins (G proteins) are involved as modulators or transducers in various transmembrane signaling systems. In the 1-cell embryo, probably together with goa-1, controls nuclear rotation and spindle elongation during mitosis. During the first embryonic cell divisons, plays a role in gpr-1/2 cortical localization and in the proper orientation of EMS blastomere mitotic spindle. Belongs to the G-alpha family.
   
 0.725
goa-1
Guanine nucleotide-binding protein G(o) subunit alpha; Guanine nucleotide-binding proteins (G proteins) are involved as modulators or transducers in various transmembrane signaling systems. The G(o) protein function is not clear. In the 1-cell embryo, probably together with gpa-16, controls nuclear rotation and spindle elongation during mitosis. During the first embryonic cell divisions, plays a role in gpr-1/2 cortical localization and in the proper orientation of EMS blastomere mitotic spindle. Polarity determinants (par genes) may regulate lin- 5/gpr-1/gpr-2/goa-1 locally to create [...]

gpa-4
Guanine nucleotide-binding protein alpha-4 subunit; Guanine nucleotide-binding proteins (G proteins) are involved as modulators or transducers in various transmembrane signaling systems; Belongs to the G-alpha family. G(i/o/t/z) subfamily.

ric-8
Synembryn; Guanine nucleotide exchange factor (GEF), which can activate some, but not all, G-alpha proteins independently of G-protein coupled receptors. Acts by exchanging bound GDP for free GTP. Able to facilitate synaptic transmission in the nervous system probably by activating G(q)-alpha (egl-30). Also able to activate the G(s)-alpha in synaptic signaling network. Plays a key role in asymmetric spindle positioning, a step for asymmetric cell division that generates cell diversity during development by activating G(i)-alpha protein goa-1 and gpa-16 independently of G-protein couple [...]
