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-44Transcription enhancer factor-like protein egl-44; Acts upstream of egl-46 to prevent touch cell differentiation in FLP neurons. Also promotes HSN neuron development. In association with egl-46, regulates cell cycle exit in the neuronal Q cell lineage. May be involved in thermal stress response downstream of yap-1. (493 aa)    
Predicted Functional Partners:
yap-1
Yes-associated protein homolog 1; Plays a role in thermal stress response and in aging.
   
 0.997
egl-46
C2H2-type domain-containing protein.
   
 
 0.971
dut-1
Deoxyuridinetriphosphatase.
   
 
 0.874
wts-1
Serine/threonine-protein kinase WARTS homolog; Phosphorylates yap-1 which may negatively regulate yap-1 nuclear localization. Plays an essential role in larval development. Regulates growth, the formation of gut granules, lifespan and cell and body sizes probably in synergy with the TGF-beta sma/mab pathway. Does not appear to regulate apoptosis and proliferation. In addition, may synergize with the TGF-beta daf-7 dauer pathway to regulate entry into the dauer stage. Maintains the cellular integrity of intestinal cells by regulating the localization of apical actin and junctional proteins.
    
 
 0.787
zag-1
Zinc finger E-box-binding homeobox protein zag-1; Down-regulates expression of genes involved in either the synthesis or reuptake of serotonin, dopamine and GABA. Acts as a transcriptional repressor to regulate multiple, discrete, neuron- specific aspects of terminal differentiation, including cell migration, axonal development and gene expression. Required for axon guidance. Involved in the proper development of the pharynx. Directly represses its own transcription by interacting with conserved E-box sequence motifs 5'-CACCTG-3' in its own promoter.
   
 
 0.753
Y54E10BR.5
Signal peptidase complex catalytic subunit SEC11.
   
  
 0.719
sem-4
SEM-4 long form.
   
 
 0.692
ten-1
Teneurin-1; Plays a role in the gonadal basement membrane maintenance and/or adhesion early in development. Contributes to the guidance of pharyngeal neurons.
   
  
 0.679
mec-3
Mechanosensory protein 3; Specifies differentiation of the set of six touch receptor neurons. Binds cooperatively as a heterodimer with unc-86 to sites in the mec-3 gene promoter.
      
 0.661
wwp-1
E3 ubiquitin-protein ligase.
   
 
 0.639
