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

unc-83Nuclear migration protein unc-83; Cargo-specific adapter that is involved in nuclear migration during development and thereafter. Component of the unc-83-unc-84 LINC (LInker of Nucleoskeleton and Cytoskeleton) complex where it interacts with unc-84 to form a bridge connecting the nuclear envelope to the cytoskeleton which allows for nuclear transport along microtubules. Within the complex, connects the nuclear envelope to the microtubule cytoskeleton through the kinesin-1 light chain protein klc-2 (most likely within the Kinesin 1 motor complex) to regulate nuclear migrations. Moreover [...] (1041 aa)    
Predicted Functional Partners:
unc-84
Nuclear migration and anchoring protein unc-84; Involved in nuclear migration and anchoring in hypodermal precursor cells. Most likely recruits anc-1 to the nuclear envelope where anc-1 functions to tether the nucleus to the actin cytoskeleton. Component of the unc-83-unc-84 LINC (LInker of Nucleoskeleton and Cytoskeleton) complex where it recruits and interacts with unc-83 to form a bridge connecting the nuclear envelope to the cytoskeleton which allows for nuclear transport along microtubules. Its role in nuclear migration may be in association with lamin, lmn-1. Regulates nuclear mi [...]

anc-1
Nuclear anchorage protein 1; Plays a central role in nuclear and mitochondrial anchoring. Probably connects nuclei to the cytoskeleton by interacting with unc-84 at the nuclear envelope and with F-actin in the cytoplasm, creating a bridge across the nuclear envelope between the cytoskeleton and the nucleus. Has a role in positioning of the cell body of the PVQ lumbar interneuron. Belongs to the nesprin family.
   
  
 0.942
sun-1
Sun domain-containing protein 1; Involved in centrosome attachment to the nucleus. Required for zyg-12 localization to the nuclear envelope. Together with pot-1, it is required to anchor telomeres to the nuclear envelope in embryos.
      
 0.941
klc-2
Kinesin light chain; Kinesin is a microtubule-associated force-producing protein that may play a role in organelle transport (Probable). The light chain may function in coupling of cargo to the heavy chain or in the modulation of its ATPase activity (Probable). Recruits unc-83 (within the unc-83-unc-84 LINC complex) to the nuclear envelope during nuclear migration to mediate the link between the nuclear envelope and the microtubule cytoskeleton in hypodermal precursor cells.
   
 
 0.925
nud-2
Protein nud-2; Part of a complex with lis-1, which is recruited to the nuclear envelope by unc-83, where, in turn, it recruits dynein to the nuclear surface and regulates nuclear migration in hypodermal precursor cells. Plays a role in GABAergic synaptic vesicle localization in the ventral nerve cord ; Belongs to the nudE family.
    
 
 0.912
kdp-1
KASH (Klarsicht/ANC-1/Syne Homology) Domain Protein.
      
 0.893
zyg-12
Zygote defective protein 12; Cytoskeletal linker protein, which is essential for attachment of the centrosome to the nucleus. Required for dynein localization to the nuclear envelope. Forms a LINC (LInker of Nucleoskeleton and Cytoskeleton) complex together with unc-84, that may be involved in DNA damage repair ; Belongs to the hook family.
      
 0.891
bicd-1
Protein bicaudal D homolog; Part of a complex with dlc-1 and egal-1, which is recruited to the nuclear envelope by unc-83, where in turn, it recruits dynein to the nuclear surface and regulates nuclear migration in hypodermal precursor cells (Probable). Required for the formation of dendritic branches of PVD sensory neurons ; Belongs to the BicD family.
   
 
 0.859
unc-116
Kinesin heavy chain; Microtubule-dependent motor protein required for organelle transport. Plays a role in endosome transport. Required for the transport of mitochondria along the axon of motor neurons. Involved in the nuclear migration of hyp7 hypodermal precursor cells. Required for the formation of dendritic branches of PVD sensory neurons. In non-ciliated neurons such as the PVD and PHC neurons, required for the organization of minus-end out microtubules in dendrites. Involved in the localization of unc-33 to neurites.
