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

Predicted Functional Partners:
mbk-2
Dual specificity tyrosine-phosphorylation-regulated kinase mbk-2; Required for oocyte-to-zygote transition in which it phosphorylates oocyte proteins, including mei-1, oma-1, oma-2, mex-5, and mex-6, modifying their activity and/or stability following meiosis. Functions in both spindle positioning and in the posterior localization of cytoplasmic determinants, including pie-1, pos-1, and pgl-1, in early embryos. Involved in the asymmetric distribution of plk-1 at the 2-cell embryonic stage.

pgl-1
Guanyl-specific ribonuclease pgl-1; Guanyl-specific endoribonuclease which cleaves the phosphodiester bond in single-stranded RNA between the 3'-guanylic residue and the 5'-OH residue of adjacent nucleotide, resulting in the formation of a corresponding 2',3'-cyclic phosphate intermediate. Together with the P-granule component pgl-3, is involved in the formation of P-granules. Together with pgl-3, probably recruits other granule components such as pos-1, mex-3 and glh-1 to P-granules. In addition, may act redundantly with pgl-3 to protect germ cells from excessive germline apoptosis du [...]

pgl-3
Guanyl-specific ribonuclease pgl-3; Guanyl-specific endoribonuclease which cleaves the phosphodiester bond in single-stranded RNA between the 3'-guanylic residue and the 5'-OH residue of adjacent nucleotide, resulting in the formation of a corresponding 2',3'-cyclic phosphate intermediate. P-granule component involved in germline development. Together with the P-granule component pgl-1, is involved in the formation of P-granules. Together with pgl- 1, probably recruits other granule components such as pos-1, mex-3 and glh-1, and RNA to P-granules. In vitro, binds mRNA; this interaction [...]

F58G11.3
Uncharacterized protein.
   
 
 0.869
pptr-1
Serine/threonine-protein phosphatase 2A regulatory subunit pptr-1; Probable regulatory subunit of serine/threonine-protein phosphatase let-92 which negatively regulates the insulin receptor signaling cascade composed of daf-2, age-1, akt-1, akt-2 and sgk-1 by promoting the dephosphorylation of akt-1 on 'Thr-350'. Negatively regulates several functions controlled by the insulin pathway including dauer formation, lifespan, fat storage and stress resistance. Plays a role in the asymmetric segregation of the P granule components during embryonic cell divisions but does not play an essentia [...]

meg-1
Uncharacterized protein.
   
 
 0.859
glh-1
ATP-dependent RNA helicase glh-1; Probable ATP-binding RNA helicase. May act redundantly with the P-granule component glh-4 to regulate the formation of the granular structure of P-granules in embryos. May play a role in transgenerational epigenetic inheritance. May protect somatic cells from excessive apoptosis during normal development. Belongs to the DEAD box helicase family. DDX4/VASA subfamily.
    
 
 0.856
meg-2
Uncharacterized protein.
   
 
 0.822
mex-5
Zinc finger protein mex-5; Functions with mex-6 to affect embryonic viability, establish soma germline asymmetry in embryos and establish plk-1, pie-1, mex-1, and pos-1 asymmetry in embryos. Also affects formation of intestinal cells. Binds to mRNA in vitro, and inhibits pgl-3-mediated P-granule formation, probably by competing with pgl-3 for binding to mRNA.
