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

mab-3Protein male abnormal 3; Transcription factor which binds the DNA motif 5'- [CGA][TCA][TA]ACAATGT[AT][TGA]C-3', probably as a monomer. Acts partially redundantly with the transcription factor dmd-3 to coordinate tail tip cell fusion and retraction and thereby regulate male tail tip morphogenesis. Promotes male-specific development of two tissues, the peripheral nervous system and the intestine. In the peripheral nervous system, directs differentiation of sensory ray neuroblasts into peripheral sense organs. In the intestine, causes repression of vitellogenin gene transcription. (290 aa)    
Predicted Functional Partners:
mab-23
Putative transcription factor MAB-23.

tra-1
Sex-determining transformer protein 1; Plays a major role in controlling sexual phenotype. Terminal global regulator in a well-characterized cascade of sex-determining genes. Promotes female development. Interacts with tra-2 to promote spermatogenesis. Promotes spermatogenesis through the Tip60 HAT complex and by regulating the expression of genes, such as fog-3, required for male development (By similarity). Association with chromatin and at the fog-3 promoter requires wdr-5.1, and may also require wdr-5.2. With trr-1, activates the fog-3 gene to determine sperm/oocyte cell fate (By s [...]

mab-10
Uncharacterized protein.

ceh-30
Homeobox protein ceh-30; Cell-type specific anti-apoptotic transcription factor required for the sexually dimorphic survival of the male-specific CEM (cephalic male) sensory neurons during sex determination. In hermaphrodites, the homologous cells undergo programmed cell death due to transcriptional repression of ceh-30 by tra-1, the terminal regulator in the sex determination pathway.

fem-1
Sex-determining protein fem-1; Sex-determining protein; essential for the adoption of the male sexual fate in all tissues. Substrate recognition subunit of the cullin-RING-based CBC(fem-1) (Cul2-ElonginB-ElonginC) E3 ubiquitin- protein ligase complex which mediates in association with cofactors fem-2 and fem-3 the ubiquitination and subsequent proteasomal degradation of tra-1.

tra-2
Sex-determining transformer protein 2; Plays a major role in controlling sexual cell fates. Promotes female development in XX animals where it sequesters one or more of the FEM proteins to the membrane thereby freeing the tra-1 protein (a putative transcription factor) to enter the nucleus and promote female development. In XO animals it acts as a receptor for her-1 which prevents it from binding to FEM proteins thereby repressing the activity of tra-1. Negatively regulates male development when bound to fem-3 and is required together with tra-1 for promoting spermatogenesis. Also requ [...]

xol-1
XO lethal protein 1; Acts as a primary sex-determining factor that promotes sexual differentiation. Absolutely required for proper sexual differentiation and male viability. High expression during gastrulation triggers male development, while low expression at that time triggers hermaphrodite development. Although related to GHMP kinase, its mode of action remains unclear; Belongs to the GHMP kinase family. Xol-1 subfamily.

lin-32
Protein lin-32; Essential for the specification of the neuroblast cell fate in the development of peripheral sense organs. Its role in the generation of sensory neurons may be through positively regulating the expression of the zinc finger protein ztf-11 during postdeirid neurogenesis.
      
 0.699
fem-3
Sex-determination protein fem-3; Required for male development. In XO (male) animals, fem-3 directs male differentiation in all tissues. In XX (hermaphrodite) animals, it specifies the first 80 or so germ cells to be sperm. Negatively regulates male development when bound to tra-2. Together with fem-2 associates with the CBC(fem-1) E3 ubiquitin-protein ligase complex which mediates the ubiquitination and subsequent proteasomal degradation of tra-1.
