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

him-14MutS protein homolog him-14; Required during the pachytene stage of meiotic prophase for the formation of crossovers between homologous chromosomes. Not needed for pairing or synapsis. May promote crossing over by interfering with Holliday junction branch migration. Has no apparent role in DNA mismatch repair. (842 aa)    
Predicted Functional Partners:
msh-5
MutS protein homolog 5; Crucial component in meiotic recombination, functioning at some point after the initiation step of recombination. Plays a role in promoting the crossover outcome of meiotic recombination events. Required for formation of normal meiotic crossover, and crossover and chiasmata generated by artificially made DNA breaks.
  
 
0.999
spo-11
Meiotic recombination protein spo-11; Required for meiotic recombination. Mediates DNA cleavage that forms the double-strand breaks (DSB) that initiate meiotic recombination.

mlh-1
DNA_mis_repair domain-containing protein.

mus-81
ERCC4 domain-containing protein.

exo-1
EXOnuclease.

pms-2
PMS (Post Meiotic Segregation) family.

rad-51
DNA repair protein RAD51 homolog; Binds to single and double-stranded DNA and exhibits DNA- dependent ATPase activity. Underwinds duplex DNA.
  
 
 0.935
zhp-3
RING-type domain-containing protein.
   
 
 0.922
top-3
DNA topoisomerase 3; Releases the supercoiling and torsional tension of DNA introduced during the DNA replication and transcription by transiently cleaving and rejoining one strand of the DNA duplex. Introduces a single-strand break via transesterification at a target site in duplex DNA. The scissile phosphodiester is attacked by the catalytic tyrosine of the enzyme, resulting in the formation of a DNA-(5'-phosphotyrosyl)- enzyme intermediate and the expulsion of a 3'-OH DNA strand. The free DNA strand than undergoes passage around the unbroken strand thus removing DNA supercoils. Fina [...]

him-6
Bloom syndrome protein homolog; Participates in DNA replication and repair (By similarity). Exhibits a magnesium-dependent ATP-dependent DNA-helicase activity that unwinds single- and double-stranded DNA in a 3'-5' direction (By similarity). Negatively regulates sister chromatid exchange (SCE) ; Belongs to the helicase family. RecQ subfamily.
