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

vab-15Homeobox protein vab-15; Probable transcription factor needed for the proper production of touch cell precursors. Essential for embryonic morphogenesis. (225 aa)    
Predicted Functional Partners:
lin-32
Protein lin-32; Essential for the specification of the neuroblast cell fate in the development of peripheral sense organs. Its role in the generation of sensory neurons may be through positively regulating the expression of the zinc finger protein ztf-11 during postdeirid neurogenesis.

trh-1
THR-like peptide hormone.

ceh-45
Homeobox domain-containing protein.
   
 
 0.619
pax-1
Paired domain-containing protein.
   
 
 0.573
ceh-79
C. Elegans Homeobox.

din-1
Daf-12-interacting protein 1; [Isoform d]: Probable transcriptional corepressor which modulates activity of the nuclear hormone receptor daf-12 to regulate the dauer diapause.
    
 
 0.539
lim-4
Putative transcription factor LIM-4.
   
 
 0.533
ets-4
Transcription factor ets-4; Transcription factor which binds to 5'-GGAA/T-3' DNA consensus sequences. Both positively and negatively regulates the expression of target genes. Plays a role in the regulation of adult lifespan, which may in part be through modulation of daf-16 activity. Regulates the expression of genes such as svh-2 in response to axon injury and in addition, may function downstream of the cAMP signaling pathway to promote axon regeneration. Regulates the expression of lipid metabolism genes and may also control the expression of the RNA-binding protein rege-1 which too [...]

ctbp-1
C-terminal-binding protein 1; Binds DNA and represses gene expression. Plays a role in regulation of life span, possibly by regulating transcription of genes important for lipid metabolism.
   
  
 0.499
sin-3
Paired amphipathic helix protein sin-3; Probable transcriptional repressor required for the deposition of dimethylated 'Lys-9' of histone H3 (H3K9me2) on asynapsed chromosome pairs (both autosomes and sex chromosomes) during meiosis, but this does not seem to solely affect the transcriptional status. Plays a role in ray fusion and patterning in the male tail, and this may be through activity of the histone deacetylase complex (HDAC).
