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

gcy-7Receptor-type guanylate cyclase gcy-7; Guanylate cyclase involved in the production of the second messenger cGMP (By similarity). Unlike other guanylate cyclases expressed in ASE neurons, may not play a role in chemotaxis responses toward salt ions in ASEL (ASE left) sensory neurons. (1111 aa)    
Predicted Functional Partners:
tax-2
Cyclic nucleotide-binding domain-containing protein.
   
 
 0.754
tax-4
Cyclic nucleotide-gated cation channel; Required for normal thermosensation and chemosensation sensory behavior. Required, downstream of receptor- type guanylate cyclase gcy-9, for CO2-mediated responses in BAG neurons. Required, downstream of receptor-type guanylate cyclase gcy-14, for alkaline pH-mediated responses in ASE-left (ASEL) neurons. Involved in the development of ASJ sensory neuron axon during late larval stages and in the maintenance of normal axon morphology in the adult. Regulates dauer formation. Required for the calcium flux to the cytoplasm in the ASJ sensory neurons [...]

lim-6
LIM domain family.
      
 0.698
srsx-3
G_PROTEIN_RECEP_F1_2 domain-containing protein.
   
  
 0.669
ceh-36
Homeobox protein ceh-36; Mediates chemosensory function of ASE and AWC neurons. In ASE neurons, required to diversify the fate of the ASEL neurons from the ASER neurons. In cooperation with the transcription factor sox-2, required for the differentiation of AWC olfactory neurons. May regulate the expression of sox-2 in AWC olfactory neurons. Belongs to the paired homeobox family.
      
 0.665
che-1
Transcription factor che-1; Transcription factor essential for the identity of ASE chemosensory neurons. Acts by activating expression of genes that are specific for ASE chemosensory neurons, such as seven-transmembrane receptors or guanylate cyclase. Also required to control the left/right asymmetry in ASE chemosensory neurons by regulating expression of genes such as cog-1 and ceh-36.
      
 0.660
die-1
C2H2-type domain-containing protein.
      
 0.529
ncs-1
Neuronal calcium sensor 1; Neuronal calcium sensor, regulator of G protein-coupled receptor phosphorylation in a calcium dependent manner. Can substitute for calmodulin and directly activate PDE, NO synthase, and calcineurin. Regulates associative learning and memory in a calcium dependent manner.
   
 
 0.492
gcy-35
Soluble guanylate cyclase gcy-35; Plays a central role in social feeding behavior and oxygen sensation by synthesizing 3',5'-cyclic guanosine monophosphate (cGMP) from GTP. Oxygen, which binds to its heme-binding sites, probably regulates social behavior by modulating its activity. cGMP is a common second messenger in sensory transduction and is implicated in oxygen sensation. Indeed, C.elegans exhibits a strong behavioral preference for 5-12% oxygen, avoiding higher and lower oxygen levels; a higher level of oxygen inducing a naturally polymorphic social feeding behavior. Involved in [...]

daf-7
Dauer larva development regulatory growth factor daf-7; May act as a negative regulator of dauer larva development by transducing chemosensory information from ASI neurons. Involved in sensitivity to CO2 levels.
