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

zyg-1Probable serine/threonine-protein kinase zyg-1; Protein kinase that plays a central role in centrosome duplication, control of centrosome size, spindle formation and nuclear envelope breakdown during cell divisions. Paternal copy is required to regulate synthesis of daughter centrioles prior to fertilization. Maternal copy regulates centrosome duplication during later cell cycles. Functions upstream of sas-5 and sas-6, and is required for their localization to the centrosome. Its role in nuclear envelope breakdown is mediated by the spindly-like protein spdl-1 and the RZZ complex, whic [...] (706 aa)    
Predicted Functional Partners:
sas-5
Spindle assembly abnormal protein 5; Required for centrosome duplication. Essential for daughter- centriole formation. Requires both maternal and partenal expression, suggesting that it regulates centriole duplication during both spermatogenesis and early embryogenesis.
   
  
 0.989
sas-4
Spindle assembly abnormal protein 4; Required for centrosome duplication. Plays a central role in determining centrosome size.
   
 
 0.987
spd-2
Spindle-defective protein 2; Required both for centrosome duplication and maturation. Required for pericentriolar material (PCM) recruitment.
   
 
 0.984
sas-6
Spindle assembly abnormal protein 6; Central scaffolding component of the centrioles ensuring their 9-fold symmetry. Required for centrosome biogenesis and duplication.
   
 
 0.970
szy-20
Suppressor of zyg-1 protein 20; RNA binding protein that is required for normal cell division and cytokinesis during embryonic development. Functions with RNA-binding protein atx-2 to ensure embryonic cell division, and to this end, plays a role in the regulation of centrosome assembly, position and size, and in astral microtubule outgrowth and nucleation. Furthermore, negatively regulates the levels of the protein kinase zyg-1 at the centrosome. Also involved in ensuring centrosome attachment to the nuclear envelope.
   
 
 0.899
sas-7
Uncharacterized protein.
   
 
 0.865
spd-5
Spindle-defective protein 5; Plays a central role in centrosome maturation and mitotic spindle assembly during the first division of the zygote. Required for the centrosomal localization of air-1 and zyg-9. Probably not required in late embryogenesis and during larval development.
   
 
 0.838
tbg-1
Tubulin gamma chain; Tubulin is the major constituent of microtubules. The gamma chain is found at microtubule organizing centers (MTOC) such as the spindle poles or the centrosome, suggesting that it is involved in the minus-end nucleation of microtubule assembly.
   
 
 0.727
mdf-1
MAD (Yeast Mitosis arrest DeFicient) related.
   
 
 0.713
bub-1
Mitotic checkpoint serine/threonine-protein kinase bub-1; Serine/threonine-protein kinase essential for spindle- assembly checkpoint signaling. Plays a key role in the recruitment of the checkpoint proteins bub-3, mdf-1 and mdf-2 to unattached kinetochores. mdf-1 recruitment is independent of bub-1 kinase activity. Has a role in the correct kinetochore localization of the spindly-like protein spdl-1. In addition, during meiotic anaphase I, controls the recruitment of hcp- 1/2 and klp-19 to the ring-shaped domain formed between chromosomes. Involved in chromosome alignment, chromosome h [...]
