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

aph-1Gamma-secretase subunit aph-1; Essential subunit of the gamma-secretase complex, an endoprotease complex that catalyzes the intramembrane cleavage of integral proteins such as Notch receptors (lin-12 or glp-1). It may represent a stabilizing cofactor for the presenilin homodimer that promotes the formation of a stable complex. Required for the localization of aph-2. (308 aa)    
Predicted Functional Partners:
hop-1
Presenilin hop-1; Probable catalytic subunit of the gamma-secretase complex, an endoprotease complex that catalyzes the intramembrane cleavage of integral membrane proteins such as Notch receptors (lin-12 or glp-1). Probably works redundantly of lin-12, which provides more presenilin function.
   
 0.999
sel-12
Presenilin sel-12; Probable catalytic subunit of the gamma-secretase complex, an endoprotease complex that catalyzes the intramembrane cleavage of integral membrane proteins such as Notch receptors (lin-12 or glp-1). Provides the major presenilin function compared to hop-1 and spe-4. Required cell-autonomously for correct neurite connectivity of the AIY cholinergic interneurons and their correct functioning in thermotaxis. Required for mesodermal patterning of muscle function. Promotes basement membrane gap formation during tissue remodeling ; Belongs to the peptidase A22A family.
   
 0.999
pen-2
Gamma-secretase subunit pen-2; Essential subunit of the gamma-secretase complex, an endoprotease complex that catalyzes the intramembrane cleavage of integral membrane proteins such as Notch (glp-1 or lin-12). It may represent a stabilizing cofactor for the presenilin homodimer that promotes the formation of a stable complex. Belongs to the PEN-2 family.
   
 0.999
aph-2
Nicastrin; Essential subunit of the gamma-secretase complex, an endoprotease complex that catalyzes the intramembrane cleavage of integral membrane proteins such as Notch (glp-1 or lin-12). It may represents a stabilizing cofactor required for the assembly of the gamma-secretase complex.
   
 0.999
spe-4
Presenilin spe-4; Potential catalytic subunit of the gamma-secretase complex during spermatogenesis, an endoprotease complex that catalyzes the intramembrane cleavage of integral membrane proteins such as Notch receptors (lin-12 or glp-1) (Probable). Involved in spermatid formation during meiosis II. May be required for proper localization of macromolecules that are subject to asymmetric partitioning during spermatogenesis.
   
 0.999
lin-12
Protein lin-12; Involved in several cell fate decisions that require cell- cell interactions. It is possible that lin-12 encodes a membrane-bound receptor for a signal that enables expression of the ventral uterine precursor cell fate. Activity in cell fate decisions and tumorigenesis is negatively regulated by sel-10. Functions in uterine cells to promote basement membrane mobility during tissue remodeling.
    
 0.948
asp-9
Peptidase A1 domain-containing protein; Belongs to the peptidase A1 family.
      
 0.758
asp-15
Peptidase A1 domain-containing protein; Belongs to the peptidase A1 family.
      
 0.758
asp-16
Peptidase A1 domain-containing protein; Belongs to the peptidase A1 family.
      
 0.758
asp-19
Peptidase A1 domain-containing protein; Belongs to the peptidase A1 family.
