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

sqv-6Xylosyltransferase sqv-6; Catalyzes the first step in biosynthesis of glycosaminoglycan. Transfers D-xylose from UDP-D-xylose to specific serine residues of the core protein. Initial enzyme in the biosynthesis of chondroitin sulfate and dermatan sulfate proteoglycans in fibroblasts and chondrocytes. Required for vulval morphogenesis and zygotic cytokinesis, suggesting that glycosaminoglycans play a central role in vulval morphogenesis. (806 aa)    
Predicted Functional Partners:
sqv-3
Xylosylprotein 4-beta-galactosyltransferase; Glycosyltransferase required for the biosynthesis of the tetrasaccharide (GlcA-Gal-Gal-Xyl-)Ser core linker of heparan sulfate and chondroitin sulfate. Required for embryonic development. Involved in vulval epithelium invagination ; Belongs to the glycosyltransferase 7 family.
     
 0.989
sqv-2
Beta-1,3-galactosyltransferase sqv-2; Beta-1,3-galactosyltransferase that transfers galactose from UDP-galactose to substrates with a terminal beta-linked galactose residue. Required for vulval morphogenesis and zygotic cytokinesis, suggesting that glycosaminoglycans play a central role in vulval morphogenesis.

sqv-1
NAD(P)-bd_dom domain-containing protein.

bgnt-1.2
B3GNT1, Beta-1,3-N-acetylGucosamiNylTransferase 1, homolog.
      
 0.852
sdn-1
Probable syndecan; Cell surface proteoglycan that bears heparan sulfate (By similarity). Required for correct mitotic spindle orientation of the ABar blastomere division plane and this may be through modulation of astral microtubule array, and in association with the wnt-signaling proteins mig-5 and dsh-2. Involved in the migration of AQR and PQR neurons, which descend from the Q neuroblasts. Promotes the axon guidance of D-type motor neurons.

Y5H2B.1
Uncharacterized protein.
   
  
 0.811
hse-5
D-glucuronyl C5-epimerase; Converts D-glucuronic acid residues adjacent to N-sulfate sugar residues to L-iduronic acids (By similarity). Plays a role in the early migration of AQR and PQR neurons, which descend from the Q neuroblasts ; Belongs to the D-glucuronyl C5-epimerase family.

hst-3.2
Sulfotransfer_1 domain-containing protein.
      
 0.777
sqv-5
Chondroitin sulfate synthase sqv-5; Has both beta-1,3-glucuronic acid and beta-1,4-N- acetylgalactosamine transferase activity. The beta- 1,3-glucuronic acid transferase activity is controversial as it is not detected using the purified recombinant enzyme. Adds the first N-acetylgalactosamine(GalNAc) to initiate the chondroitin chain. Transfers glucuronic acid (GlcUA) from UDP-GlcUA and GalNAc from UDP-GalNAc to the non-reducing end of the elongating chondroitin polymer. Together with mig-22, required for chondroitin synthesis. Plays a role in early embryonic development by controlling [...]

hst-2
Heparan sulfate 2-O-sulfotransferase hst-2; Catalyzes the transfer of sulfate to the C2-position of selected hexuronic acid residues within the maturing heparan sulfate (HS). Involved in cell adhesion and guidance by specifically modifying proteoglycans in the extracellular matrix and on the cell surface that are essential for axon migrations.
