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

ife-5Eukaryotic translation initiation factor 4E-5; Recognizes and binds the 7-methylguanosine-containing mRNA cap during an early step in the initiation of protein synthesis and facilitates ribosome binding by inducing the unwinding of the mRNAs secondary structures. All 5 eIF4E proteins bind monomethyl cap structures. Only ife-1, ife-2 and ife-5 bind trimethyl cap structures which result from trans-splicing. Translation of trimethyl cap structure mRNAs may be regulated by intracellular redox state; disulfide bonds change the width and depth of the cap-binding cavity determining selectivit [...] (201 aa)    
Predicted Functional Partners:
ifg-1
MIF4G domain-containing protein.
   
 0.972
gex-2
Cytoplasmic FMR1-interacting protein homolog; Required for initial steps of body morphogenesis. May play a role in egg laying and yolk protein clatherin-mediated endocytosis by oocytes during oogenesis. Plays a role in the formation of muscle connections, also called muscle arm extensions, between the body wall and the motor axons in the dorsal and ventral cord.
    
 0.929
inf-1
Eukaryotic initiation factor 4A; ATP-dependent RNA helicase which is a subunit of the eIF4F complex involved in cap recognition and is required for mRNA binding to ribosome. In the current model of translation initiation, eIF4A unwinds RNA secondary structures in the 5'-UTR of mRNAs which is necessary to allow efficient binding of the small ribosomal subunit, and subsequent scanning for the initiator codon; Belongs to the DEAD box helicase family. eIF4A subfamily.
   
 0.871
F57B9.3
Uncharacterized protein; Belongs to the DEAD box helicase family.
   
 0.846
tag-72
mRNA cap guanine-N7 methyltransferase; mRNA-capping methyltransferase that methylates the N7 position of the added guanosine to the 5'-cap structure of mRNAs. Binds RNA containing 5'-terminal GpppC (By similarity); Belongs to the class I-like SAM-binding methyltransferase superfamily. mRNA cap 0 methyltransferase family.
    
 
 0.781
ifet-1
Translational repressor ifet-1; Involved in translational repression of multiple mRNAs in the distal gonad. Recruited to the 3' untranslated region (UTR) of zif-1 by oma-1 and is required for translational repression of zif-1. May also be involved in translational repression of mei-1 through recruitment to the mei-1 3' UTR by oma-1. Required for oogenesis but not spermatogenesis, for P granule formation and for the localization of car-1 and cgh-1 to P granules. Required for normal spindle orientation in early embryos.
    
 
 0.781
C37C3.2
Eukaryotic translation initiation factor 5; Catalyzes the hydrolysis of GTP bound to the 40S ribosomal initiation complex (40S.mRNA.Met-tRNA[F].eIF-2.GTP) with the subsequent joining of a 60S ribosomal subunit resulting in the release of eIF-2 and the guanine nucleotide. The subsequent joining of a 60S ribosomal subunit results in the formation of a functional 80S initiation complex (80S.mRNA.Met-tRNA[F]).
   
 0.768
nol-14
NucleOLar protein.
   
  
 0.758
cdl-1
Histone RNA hairpin-binding protein; Involved in histone pre-mRNA 3' processing. Required for chromosome condensation, progression of cell death and morphogenesis.
