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

sta-1Signal transducer and activator of transcription 1; Carries out a dual function: signal transduction and activation of transcription. Activated STAT proteins play a role in repression of dauer formation. Neuronal expression is held in check by negative signals through the TGF-beta pathway that target the daf-3 transcription factor. (706 aa)    
Predicted Functional Partners:
let-23
Receptor tyrosine-protein kinase let-23; Tyrosine-protein kinase receptor which, upon binding ligand lin-3, activates 2 signaling cascades: the let-60/Ras and MAP kinase signaling pathway and the let-60-independent phospholipase C-mediated Ca(2+) signaling pathway. Each pathway regulates distinct functions. By activating let-60/Ras, regulates larval development, induction of vulva cell precursors during vulva development, male spicule formation and posterior development of the epidermis. Probably by activating phospholipase plc-3 and inositol 1,4,5-trisphosphate receptor itr-1 signalin [...]

gei-17
E3 SUMO-protein ligase gei-17; Functions as an E3-type smo-1 ligase. Mediates smo-1 conjugation to air-2 in vitro and is required for proper chromosome alignment. In the early embryo, specifically suppresses checkpoint activation in response to DNA damage, maybe by promoting mus-101 sumoylation. In embryos, plays a role in determining telomere localization in the nucleus.
   
 0.874
ZK856.11
Probable RNA-binding protein EIF1AD; Belongs to the EIF1AD family.
   
 
 0.712
nhr-2
Nuclear hormone receptor family member nhr-2; Orphan nuclear receptor; Belongs to the nuclear hormone receptor family.
    
 
 0.674
viro-2
WH1 domain-containing protein.
   
  
 0.673
dcar-1
G_PROTEIN_RECEP_F1_2 domain-containing protein.
   
  
 0.667
hda-3
Histone deacetylase; Belongs to the histone deacetylase family. HD Type 1 subfamily.
   
 0.658
egl-15
Myoblast growth factor receptor egl-15; Receptor tyrosine kinase required for larval development. May phosphorylate adapter protein soc-1 which in turn may result in the recruitment and/or activation of phosphatase ptp-2. May activate the Ras/MAPK kinase signaling pathway which includes sem-5, sos-1, let-60/Ras, lin-45/Raf, mek-2 and mpk-1. Acts in the hypodermis to regulate axon growth and fluid homeostasis. Activates protein degradation in muscles. Probably following interaction with ligand let-756, regulates negatively membrane protrusion from body wall muscles during larval develop [...]

unc-42
Homeobox domain-containing protein.
      
 0.648
miz-1
SP-RING-type domain-containing protein.
