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

zyg-9Zygote defective protein 9; Plays a major role in organizing microtubules and spindle poles during mitosis and meiosis in one-cell stage embryos. Required for default nucleus positioning in oocytes. (1415 aa)    
Predicted Functional Partners:
tac-1
Transforming acid coiled-coil-containing protein 1; Involved in microtubule formation, polymerization and assembly, regulating microtubule nucleation and length. Plays a role in pronuclear migration and mitotic and meiotic spindle elongation during early embryogenesis. In complex with zyg-9, functions during the early stages of embryonic development to regulate microtubule assembly throughout the cell cycle. Specifically, the complex is required for the formation and growth of astral microtubules and spindle microtubules during mitotic spindle assembly. At anaphase, the complex is requ [...]

spd-5
Spindle-defective protein 5; Plays a central role in centrosome maturation and mitotic spindle assembly during the first division of the zygote. Required for the centrosomal localization of air-1 and zyg-9. Probably not required in late embryogenesis and during larval development.

ndc-80
Kinetochore protein ndc-80; Acts as a component of the essential kinetochore-associated ndc-80 complex, which is required for chromosome segregation in mitosis and meiosis and spindle checkpoint activity. Plays a role in kinetochore assembly and recruits the checkpoint protein mdf-2 and the spindly-like protein spdl-1 to unattached kinetochores. Mediates the formation of end-on kinetochore-microtubule attachments through recruitment of spdl-1. The ndc-80 complex synergistically enhances the affinity of the ska-1 complex for microtubules and may allow the ndc-80 complex to track depolym [...]

him-10
Kinetochore protein Nuf2 homolog; Acts as a component of the essential kinetochore-associated NDC80 complex, which is required for chromosome segregation in mitosis and meiosis and spindle checkpoint activity. The ndc-80 complex synergistically enhances the affinity of the ska-1 complex for microtubules and may allow the ndc-80 complex to track depolymerizing microtubules. Belongs to the NUF2 family.
