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

glr-3GLutamate Receptor family (AMPA). (836 aa)    
Predicted Functional Partners:
gcy-8
Receptor-type guanylate cyclase gcy-8; Guanylate cyclase involved in the production of the second messenger cGMP. Regulates thermotaxis responses in AFD sensory neurons. May regulate AFD neuronal activity such as calcium responses to temperature gradients. Maintains the microvilli receptive ending morphology of the AFD thermosensory neurons by regulating cGMP levels downstream of kcc-3. cGMP levels antagonize the actin cytoskeleton regulator wsp-1.

Y17G7B.22
Uncharacterized protein.
      
 0.700
trpa-1
Transient receptor potential cation channel subfamily A member 1 homolog; Receptor-activated non-selective cation channel involved in the nose-touch response and foraging behavior. Contributes to the neural responses of sensory neurons to touch, particularly after repeated mechanical stimulation. Has no apparent role in thermosensory or chemosensory behaviors.
      
 0.660
eat-4
Probable vesicular glutamate transporter eat-4; Required for glutamatergic synaptic transmission. In AWB and AWC sensory neurons, required for the detection of preferred food sources, probably via glutamatergic neurotransmission from sensory neurons. Negatively regulates the turning step of male mating behavior.
   
  
 0.635
dlg-1
Disks large homolog 1; Essential multidomain scaffolding protein required for normal development (Probable). Recruits channels, receptors and signaling molecules to discrete plasma membrane domains in polarized cells (By similarity). Required for proper embryonic elongation. Acts upstream of ajm-1 and becomes localized to apical junctions independently of ajm-1. With let-413, cooperatively regulates ajm-1 localization to apical junctions. Belongs to the MAGUK family.
   
 0.624
glr-6
PBPe domain-containing protein.
  
  
0.581
ttx-3
LIM/homeobox protein ttx-3; Required for specification of the AIA and AIY interneurons and the NSM neurons. Positively regulates the expression of a number of genes including ceh-23, kal-1, hen-1, ser-2, unc-17 and sra-11 in AIY interneurons and cat-4, flp-4, bas-1, ptps-1 and mgl-1 in NSM neurons. Also acts in an autoregulatory feedback loop to maintain its own expression. Plays a role in the thermotactic response, olfactory imprinting, regulation of longevity, control of dauer formation and axon outgrowth and pathfinding. Not required for normal chemosensory behavior.
      
 0.580
twk-3
TWiK family of potassium channels; Belongs to the two pore domain potassium channel (TC 1.A.1.8) family.
   
  
 0.554
gcy-18
Receptor-type guanylate cyclase gcy-18; Guanylate cyclase involved in the production of the second messenger cGMP (By similarity). Regulates thermotaxis responses in AFD sensory neurons. May regulate AFD neuronal activity such as calcium responses to temperature gradients.
   
  
 0.542
cal-2
CALmodulin related genes.
