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

clr-1Receptor-type tyrosine-protein phosphatase; Possesses an intrinsic protein tyrosine phosphatase (PTPase) activity. Regulates egl-15 activity which is required for hypodermis-mediated fluid homeostasis and protein degradation in muscle. During the formation of neuromuscular junctions at the larval stage, negatively regulates membrane protrusion from body wall muscles. Plays a role in nicotinic acetylcholine receptor (nAChR)-mediated sensitivity to nicotine. Regulates synaptic levels of nAchR subunit lev-1 in the nerve cord. Promotes the outgrowth of the quaternary dendritic branches of [...] (1444 aa)    
Predicted Functional Partners:
egl-15
Myoblast growth factor receptor egl-15; Receptor tyrosine kinase required for larval development. May phosphorylate adapter protein soc-1 which in turn may result in the recruitment and/or activation of phosphatase ptp-2. May activate the Ras/MAPK kinase signaling pathway which includes sem-5, sos-1, let-60/Ras, lin-45/Raf, mek-2 and mpk-1. Acts in the hypodermis to regulate axon growth and fluid homeostasis. Activates protein degradation in muscles. Probably following interaction with ligand let-756, regulates negatively membrane protrusion from body wall muscles during larval develop [...]

vpr-1
Major sperm protein; Central component in molecular interactions underlying sperm crawling. Forms an extensive filament system that extends from sperm villipoda, along the leading edge of the pseudopod.
   
 
 0.766
dma-1
LRRCT domain-containing protein.
   
 
 0.759
unc-40
Unc-40 protein.
   
 
 0.730
let-756
Protein let-756; Required for larval development. Probably by binding receptor egl-15, regulates negatively membrane protrusion from body wall muscles during larval development.
   
 
 0.709
klo-2
KLOtho (Mammalian aging-associated protein) homolog; Belongs to the glycosyl hydrolase 1 family.
      
 0.695
sem-5
Sex muscle abnormal protein 5; Adapter protein which modulates signaling mediated by several receptor tyrosine kinases such as egl-15 and let-23 probably acting upstream of let-60/ras. Negatively regulates vulva induction probably downstream of let-23. Involved in sex myoblast migration. Negatively regulates fluid homeostasis probably downstream of egl-15. During the formation of neuromuscular junctions at the larval stage, negatively regulates membrane protrusion from body wall muscles probably downstream of egl- 15. Involved in cytoskeleton dynamics and is recruited by mig-13 to the [...]
