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

lim-4Putative transcription factor LIM-4. (355 aa)    
Predicted Functional Partners:
odr-7
Nuclear hormone receptor family member odr-7; Required for the function of one pair of chemosensory neurons called AWA neurons that are involved in chemotaxis to volatile odorants. Acts in a pathway that specifies olfactory neuronal fate. Regulates the transcription of olfactory signaling molecules such as odr-10 that specify AWA neuron identity and function. Represses the expression in AWA neurons of factors such as str-2 which specify AWC neuron identity.
   
  
 0.818
ceh-36
Homeobox protein ceh-36; Mediates chemosensory function of ASE and AWC neurons. In ASE neurons, required to diversify the fate of the ASEL neurons from the ASER neurons. In cooperation with the transcription factor sox-2, required for the differentiation of AWC olfactory neurons. May regulate the expression of sox-2 in AWC olfactory neurons. Belongs to the paired homeobox family.
   
 
 0.768
tbc-13
Rab-GAP TBC domain-containing protein.
 
 
    0.739
ldb-1
LID domain-containing protein.
   
 
 0.738
ceh-10
Homeobox protein ceh-10; Required for larval development and for cell fate specification and migration of CAN neurons.
   
  
 0.687
mls-2
Homeobox domain-containing protein.
   
 
 0.684
unc-3
Transcription factor unc-3; May play a role in the expression of proteins essential for axonal pathfinding and/or neuronal differentiation in both sensory and motor neurons. Cooperates with jmjd-3.1 and wdr-5.1 to ensure robust transdifferentiation of the Y rectal cell to the PDA motor neuron during larval development.
   
  
 0.666
str-1
Seven TM Receptor.
      
 0.660
cho-1
High-affinity choline transporter 1; Imports choline from the extracellular space to the neuron with high affinity. Choline uptake is the rate-limiting step in acetylcholine synthesis. Sodium ion and chloride ion dependent.
   
  
 0.660
ceh-24
Homeobox protein ceh-24; Probable transcriptional regulator that is required in neural development for the normal formation of sublateral cholinergic motor neuron processes. Plays a role in regulating the expression of acetylcholine transporter protein unc-17 in the sublateral processes. In particular, it is required in sublateral motor neurons for a left- right turning behavior that occurs during the lethargus phase of the normal sleep process called 'flipping'. During 'flipping' animals rotate 180 degrees about their longitudinal axis.
