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

mtx-1Metaxin-1 homolog; Involved in transport of proteins into the mitochondrion. Essential for embryonic development (By similarity); Belongs to the metaxin family. (312 aa)    
Predicted Functional Partners:
gop-3
SAM50-like protein gop-3; May play a role in the maintenance of the structure of mitochondrial cristae; Belongs to the SAM50/omp85 family.
   
 0.993
tomm-40
Mitochondrial import receptor subunit TOM40 homolog; Channel-forming protein essential for import of protein precursors into mitochondria. Specifically required for nnt-1 accumulation in the mitochondria and may be involved in the secretion of daf-28/insulin from the mitochondria. Required for embryonic and larval development.
   
 0.983
mtx-2
Metaxin-2 homolog.
  
 
0.921
tomm-20
Mitochondrial import receptor subunit TOM20 homolog; Central component of the receptor complex responsible for the recognition and translocation of cytosolically synthesized mitochondrial preproteins (By similarity). Together with tomm-22 functions as the transit peptide receptor at the surface of the mitochondrion outer membrane and facilitates the movement of preproteins into the translocation pore.
   
 0.908
tomm-7
Mitochondrial import receptor subunit TOM7 homolog; Belongs to the Tom7 family.
    
 0.863
tomm-22
Mitochondrial import receptor subunit TOM22 homolog; Central receptor component of the translocase of the outer membrane of mitochondria (TOM complex) responsible for the recognition and translocation of cytosolically synthesized mitochondrial preproteins (By similarity). Together with the peripheral receptor tomm-20 functions as the transit peptide receptor and facilitates the movement of preproteins into the translocation pore.
    
 
 0.818
F32B4.2
Uncharacterized protein.
    
 0.723
tomm-70
Mitochondrial import receptor subunit tomm-70; Receptor that accelerates the import of all mitochondrial precursor proteins; Belongs to the Tom70 family.
   
 
 0.711
vdac-1
Probable voltage-dependent anion-selective channel; Forms a channel through the cell membrane that allows diffusion of small hydrophilic molecules.
   
 
 0.690
miro-1
Mitochondrial Rho GTPase 1; Mitochondrial GTPase involved in mitochondrial trafficking. Probably involved in control of anterograde transport of mitochondria and their subcellular distribution.
