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

zwl-1Protein zwilch homolog; Essential component of the mitotic checkpoint, which prevents cells from prematurely exiting mitosis. Required for chromosome segregation, the assembly of the dynein-dynactin and mdf-1- mdf-2 complexes onto kinetochores and spindle pole separation. Its function related to the spindle assembly machinery and kinetochore-microtubule attachments likely depends on its association in the mitotic RZZ complex. The RZZ complex recruits the spindly-like protein spdl-1 to kinetochores. To prevent irregular chromosome segregation, the complex also inhibits the attachment of [...] (630 aa)

czw-1
Centromere/kinetochore protein zw10 homolog; Essential component of the mitotic checkpoint, which prevents cells from prematurely exiting mitosis. Required for the assembly of the dynein-dynactin and mdf-1-mdf-2 complexes onto kinetochores. Its function related to the spindle assembly machinery and kinetochore-microtubule attachments likely depends on its association in the mitotic RZZ complex. The RZZ complex recruits the spindly-like protein spdl-1 to kinetochores. To prevent irregular chromosome segregation, the complex also inhibits the attachment of the kinetochore-associated NDC8 [...]

rod-1
Kinetochore-associated protein rod-1; Essential component of the mitotic checkpoint, which prevents cells from prematurely exiting mitosis. Required for chromosome segregation, the assembly of the dynein-dynactin and mdf-1-mdf-2 complexes onto kinetochores and spindle pole separation. Plays a role in nuclear envelope breakdown. Its function related to the spindle assembly machinery and kinetochore-microtubule attachments likely depends on its association in the mitotic RZZ complex. The RZZ complex recruits the spindly-like protein spdl-1 to kinetochores. To prevent irregular chromosome [...]

ndc-80
Kinetochore protein ndc-80; Acts as a component of the essential kinetochore-associated ndc-80 complex, which is required for chromosome segregation in mitosis and meiosis and spindle checkpoint activity. Plays a role in kinetochore assembly and recruits the checkpoint protein mdf-2 and the spindly-like protein spdl-1 to unattached kinetochores. Mediates the formation of end-on kinetochore-microtubule attachments through recruitment of spdl-1. The ndc-80 complex synergistically enhances the affinity of the ska-1 complex for microtubules and may allow the ndc-80 complex to track depolym [...]

spdl-1
Spindly-like protein spdl-1; Transient kinetochore component required for chromosome and spindle pole alignment and chromosome segregation during mitosis. Functions downstream of the RZZ complex to mediate kinetochore-microtubule attachments and nuclear envelope breakdown during cell division. Required for kinetochore assembly and localizes the checkpoint proteins mdf-1 and mdf-2, dynein and dynactin to unattached kinetochores. Dynein is believed to control the initial lateral interaction between the kinetochore and spindle microtubules and to facilitate the subsequent formation of end [...]

bmk-1
Kinesin-like protein; Belongs to the TRAFAC class myosin-kinesin ATPase superfamily. Kinesin family.
   
  
 0.879
ska-1
Spindle and kinetochore-associated protein 1; Component of the ska-1 complex, a microtubule-binding subcomplex of the outer kinetochore that is essential for proper chromosome segregation. Required for timely anaphase onset during mitosis, when chromosomes undergo bipolar attachment on spindle microtubules leading to silencing of the spindle checkpoint (By similarity). The ska-1 complex is a direct component of the kinetochore-microtubule interface and directly associates with microtubules as oligomeric assemblies (By similarity). The complex facilitates the processive movement of micr [...]

bub-1
Mitotic checkpoint serine/threonine-protein kinase bub-1; Serine/threonine-protein kinase essential for spindle- assembly checkpoint signaling. Plays a key role in the recruitment of the checkpoint proteins bub-3, mdf-1 and mdf-2 to unattached kinetochores. mdf-1 recruitment is independent of bub-1 kinase activity. Has a role in the correct kinetochore localization of the spindly-like protein spdl-1. In addition, during meiotic anaphase I, controls the recruitment of hcp- 1/2 and klp-19 to the ring-shaped domain formed between chromosomes. Involved in chromosome alignment, chromosome h [...]

him-10
Kinetochore protein Nuf2 homolog; Acts as a component of the essential kinetochore-associated NDC80 complex, which is required for chromosome segregation in mitosis and meiosis and spindle checkpoint activity. The ndc-80 complex synergistically enhances the affinity of the ska-1 complex for microtubules and may allow the ndc-80 complex to track depolymerizing microtubules. Belongs to the NUF2 family.
