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

Predicted Functional Partners:
hlh-26
Helix-loop-helix protein 26; Binds DNA via the E-box sequence 5'-CACGTG-3'. Binds DNA as a homodimer. Represses lag-2 transcription during embryogenesis via Notch signaling, in an unc-37-dependent manner. Also represses tbx-37 independent of Notch signaling.
   
  
 0.827
hlh-27
BHLH domain-containing protein.
   
  
 0.707
hlh-25
BHLH domain-containing protein.
   
  
 0.705
math-1
MATH domain-containing protein.
   
  
 0.670
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.
   
  
 0.664
ftn-1
Ferritin; Stores iron in a soluble, non-toxic, readily available form. Important for iron homeostasis. Iron is taken up in the ferrous form and deposited as ferric hydroxides after oxidation.
      
 0.660
hlh-10
BHLH domain-containing protein.
      
 0.660
hlh-11
Helix-loop-helix protein 11.
      
 0.655
hlh-30
BHLH domain-containing protein.
      
 0.570
mab-3
Protein male abnormal 3; Transcription factor which binds the DNA motif 5'- [CGA][TCA][TA]ACAATGT[AT][TGA]C-3', probably as a monomer. Acts partially redundantly with the transcription factor dmd-3 to coordinate tail tip cell fusion and retraction and thereby regulate male tail tip morphogenesis. Promotes male-specific development of two tissues, the peripheral nervous system and the intestine. In the peripheral nervous system, directs differentiation of sensory ray neuroblasts into peripheral sense organs. In the intestine, causes repression of vitellogenin gene transcription.
