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

wago-1Argonaute protein wago-1; Argonaute protein which is involved in the endogenous small interfering RNA (endo-siRNA) pathway. Interacts with secondary 22G- RNAs, which are RNA-dependent RNA polymerase-derived endo-siRNAs, typically 22 nucleotides in length with a 5'guanosine residue. In the germline, functions in a genome surveillance system to silence transposons and aberrant transcripts. (945 aa)    
Predicted Functional Partners:
pgl-1
Guanyl-specific ribonuclease pgl-1; Guanyl-specific endoribonuclease which cleaves the phosphodiester bond in single-stranded RNA between the 3'-guanylic residue and the 5'-OH residue of adjacent nucleotide, resulting in the formation of a corresponding 2',3'-cyclic phosphate intermediate. Together with the P-granule component pgl-3, is involved in the formation of P-granules. Together with pgl-3, probably recruits other granule components such as pos-1, mex-3 and glh-1 to P-granules. In addition, may act redundantly with pgl-3 to protect germ cells from excessive germline apoptosis du [...]

glh-1
ATP-dependent RNA helicase glh-1; Probable ATP-binding RNA helicase. May act redundantly with the P-granule component glh-4 to regulate the formation of the granular structure of P-granules in embryos. May play a role in transgenerational epigenetic inheritance. May protect somatic cells from excessive apoptosis during normal development. Belongs to the DEAD box helicase family. DDX4/VASA subfamily.

ego-1
RNA-directed RNA polymerase related EGO-1.
   
  
 0.890
rde-12
DEAD-box ATP-dependent RNA helicase rde-12; Probable ATP-dependent RNA helicase involved in RNAi-mediated gene silencing. Specifically required in the endogenous siRNA pathway for biogenesis of secondary endogenous small interfering RNA (siRNA) intermediates called 22G-RNAs. May associate with and recruit rde- 10 to primary siRNA-targeted mRNA for secondary siRNA synthesis. May be recruited to target mRNAs by rde-1 and/or ergo-1.

ZK1067.2
NFX1-type zinc finger-containing protein 1 homolog; Epigenetic inheritance factor which, in association with the Argonaute protein wago-4, mediates small RNA-directed transgenerational epigenetic inheritance and thus balances the transgenerational inheritance of epigenetic information. Specifically, maintains a balanced production of small RNAs by preventing the spread of epigenetic signals towards the 5'-end of target mRNAs. Plays a role in small RNA- induced gene silencing in the germline.

pgl-3
Guanyl-specific ribonuclease pgl-3; Guanyl-specific endoribonuclease which cleaves the phosphodiester bond in single-stranded RNA between the 3'-guanylic residue and the 5'-OH residue of adjacent nucleotide, resulting in the formation of a corresponding 2',3'-cyclic phosphate intermediate. P-granule component involved in germline development. Together with the P-granule component pgl-1, is involved in the formation of P-granules. Together with pgl- 1, probably recruits other granule components such as pos-1, mex-3 and glh-1, and RNA to P-granules. In vitro, binds mRNA; this interaction [...]
