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

nhr-7Nuclear hormone receptor family member nhr-7; Orphan nuclear receptor; Belongs to the nuclear hormone receptor family. (536 aa)    
Predicted Functional Partners:
gei-8
Nuclear receptor corepressor 1; Mediates transcriptional repression by certain nuclear receptors. Plays a role in development and neuronal function. May play a role in muscle-specific oxidative mitochondrial metabolism.

hda-2
Putative histone deacetylase 2; Probably responsible for the deacetylation of lysine residues on the N-terminal part of the core histones (H2A, H2B, H3 and H4) (By similarity). Histone deacetylation gives a tag for epigenetic repression and plays an important role in transcriptional regulation, cell cycle progression and developmental events (By similarity). Histone deacetylases act via the formation of large multiprotein complexes (By similarity). As a likely component of a histone deacetylase complex, together with saeg-1 and hda-2, functions downstream of the cAMP-dependent kinase e [...]

nhr-2
Nuclear hormone receptor family member nhr-2; Orphan nuclear receptor; Belongs to the nuclear hormone receptor family.
     
0.482
nhr-6
Nuclear hormone receptor family member nhr-6; Transcriptional activator that induces gene expression by binding to the NGFI-B response element (NBRE) 5'-AAAGGTCA-3'. Required for proper morphogenesis of the spermatheca and the spermatheca-uterine valve formation. Promotes cell proliferation and differentiation of the spermatheca precursor cells during spermatheca development in larval stage L4. Might play a role in promoting G1/S phase progression in the spermatheca precursor cell lineage. Also required for the differentiation of the spermatheca-uterine junction core (sujc) cells which [...]

smo-1
Small ubiquitin-related modifier; Ubiquitin-like protein which can be covalently attached to target lysines as a monomer. Does not seem to be involved in protein degradation and may function as an antagonist of ubiquitin in the degradation process. Plays a role in a number of cellular processes such as nuclear transport, DNA replication and repair, mitosis and signal transduction. Covalent attachment to its substrates requires prior activation by the E1 complex aos-1-uba-2 and linkage to the E2 enzyme ubc-9, and can be promoted by an E3 ligase such as gei-17. Required for embryonic dev [...]

sex-1
Steroid hormone receptor family member cnr14; Belongs to the nuclear hormone receptor family. NR1 subfamily.
    
 
0.437
nhr-85
Nuclear hormone receptor family member nhr-85; Orphan nuclear receptor.
    
 
0.437
ubc-9
SUMO-conjugating enzyme UBC9; Accepts the ubiquitin-like protein smo-1 from the aos-1-uba-2 E1 complex and catalyzes its covalent attachment to other proteins with the help of an E3 ligase such as gei-17. Required to sumoylate the ETS transcription factor lin-1 and the Polycomb protein sop-2. Required for embryonic development, fertility, vulval morphogenesis and inhibition of vulval cell fates. Belongs to the ubiquitin-conjugating enzyme family.
    
  0.431
gei-17
E3 SUMO-protein ligase gei-17; Functions as an E3-type smo-1 ligase. Mediates smo-1 conjugation to air-2 in vitro and is required for proper chromosome alignment. In the early embryo, specifically suppresses checkpoint activation in response to DNA damage, maybe by promoting mus-101 sumoylation. In embryos, plays a role in determining telomere localization in the nucleus.
