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

nop-1Pseudocleavage protein nop-1; Required for formation of the pseudocleavage furrow during the first cleavage of the embryo and also mediates aster-induced furrowing during cytokinesis. Promotes cortical recruitment of ani-1 and nmy-2 during pseudocleavage and cytokinesis and promotes the accumulation of actin at furrowing regions. Regulates establishment of embryonic cell polarity. (759 aa)    
Predicted Functional Partners:
ani-1
Anillin-like protein 1; Required for contractile events in embryos that occur prior to mitosis, such as cortical ruffling and pseudocleavage. Promotes membrane ruffling by organizing cortical patches of septins and myosin II. Not generally required for cytokinesis in mitotic cells. Required for the asymmetric cleavage events that extrude the two polar bodies during oocyte meiosis. Not required for meiotic contractile ring assembly, initiation or closure but is required for the transformation of the contractile ring from a disk above the spindle to a tube around the spindle midzone.

zyg-9
Zygote 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.
   
  
 0.684
mlc-5
Myosin-2 essential light chain; Required for cytokinesis and embryo elongation. May regulate myosin II complex formation and/or the association of myosin with actin. May be involved in the organization of mlc-4 and nmy-2 into bundles.
      
 0.660
let-99
Protein let-99; Required for the proper orientation of spindles after the establishment of polarity. May play a role in interactions between the astral microtubules and the cortical cytoskeleton. Required for asymmetric forces on nuclei and spindles. Acts downstream of the PAR signaling as an intermediate that transduces polarity information to the machinery that positions the mitotic spindle, possibly by regulating force generation. Regulates gpr-1/2 asymmetric cortical localization during the first embryonic cell divisions. Acts antagonistically to the gpr-1/2 signaling pathway. Regu [...]
