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

nas-39Zinc metalloproteinase nas-39; Metalloprotease. (951 aa)    
Predicted Functional Partners:
col-99
Putative cuticle collagen 99; Nematode cuticles are composed largely of collagen-like proteins. The cuticle functions both as an exoskeleton and as a barrier to protect the worm from its environment (By similarity).

ttn-1
Titin homolog; Serine/threonine-protein kinase. Key component in the assembly and functioning of muscles. By providing connections at the level of individual microfilaments, it contributes to the fine balance of forces between the two halves of the sarcomere. The size and extensibility of the cross-links are the main determinants of sarcomere extensibility properties of muscle. In non-muscle cells, seems to play a role in chromosome condensation and chromosome segregation during mitosis. Might link the lamina network to chromatin or nuclear actin, or both during interphase (By similarity).

dbl-1
TGF_BETA_2 domain-containing protein.

manf-1
Mesencephalic astrocyte-derived neurotrophic factor homolog; Inhibits endoplasmic reticulum (ER) stress response (By similarity). Retained in the ER under normal conditions and is up- regulated and secreted by the ER in response to ER stress and hypoxia (By similarity). Following secretion by the ER, directly binds to 3-O- sulfogalactosylceramide, a lipid sulfatide in the outer cell membrane of target cells. Sulfatide binding promotes its cellular uptake by endocytosis, and is required for its role in alleviating ER stress under ER stress conditions (By similarity). Has a neuroprotecti [...]

yap-1
Yes-associated protein homolog 1; Plays a role in thermal stress response and in aging.

smc-3
Structural maintenance of chromosomes protein 3; Involved in chromosome cohesion during cell cycle and in DNA repair. Involved in the repair of double strand breaks during mitosis and meiosis. Required for chromosome segregation during mitosis. Central component of cohesin complex. The cohesin complex is required for the cohesion of sister chromatids after DNA replication. The cohesin complex apparently forms a large proteinaceous ring within which sister chromatids can be trapped (By similarity). At anaphase, the complex is cleaved and dissociates from chromatin, allowing sister chrom [...]

kpc-1
Furin-like protease kpc-1; Furin-like protease which cleaves proproteins at the RX(K/R)R consensus motif. During neuronal development, regulates the formation and extension of dendrite branches and cellular positioning of various type of neurons. Promotes the formation, extension and self-avoidance of dendritic branches of PVD and FLP mechanosensory neurons. In PVD neurons, regulates plasma membrane levels of branching receptor dma-1 by targeting it to late endosomes and thus promotes normal dendrite branching and dendrite self-avoidance. Also controls dendrite extension in AIY and D-t [...]

bli-4
Endoprotease bli-4; Serine endoprotease which cleaves proproteins at paired basic amino acids (Probable). Involved in cuticle biosynthesis probably by cleaving pro-collagen into its mature form. Acts in ASEL sensory neurons to regulate high salt chemotaxis responses probably by cleaving insulin-like protein ins-6 into its mature and active form. Essential for embryonic and larval development. isoform a, isoform e, isoform f, isoform g and isoform h are involved in cuticle biosynthesis but are dispensable for larval development.
