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

ttll-4Tubulin polyglutamylase ttll-4; Polyglutamylase involved in side-chain polyglutamylation of tubulin in sensory cilia. Together with ttll-5 and ttll-11, required for male mating. (601 aa)    
Predicted Functional Partners:
ccpp-1
Cytosolic carboxypeptidase 1; Catalyzes the deglutamylation of polyglutamate side chains generated by post-translational polyglutamylation of proteins such as tubulins (Probable). Via the deglutamylation of tubulin, regulates the localization and velocity of kinesin motors and the structural integrity of microtubules in sensory cilia. In male CEM sensory neurons, regulates the cilia release of bioactive extracellular vesicles. Also regulates microtubule dynamics in uterine muscle cells.
  
 
 0.957
ccpp-6
Cytosolic carboxypeptidase 6; Metallocarboxypeptidase that catalyzes the removing of polyglutamate side chains that are present on the gamma-carboxyl group of glutamate residues of tubulin in sensory cilia. Probably via the deglutamylation of tubulin, promotes microtubule stability required for axon regrowth after injury. Also regulates microtubule dynamics in uterine muscle cells. Belongs to the peptidase M14 family.
    
 
 0.928
klp-6
Kinesin-like protein; Belongs to the TRAFAC class myosin-kinesin ATPase superfamily. Kinesin family.
      
 0.806
mec-17
Alpha-tubulin N-acetyltransferase 1; Specifically acetylates 'Lys-40' in alpha-tubulin/mec-12 on the lumenal side of microtubules. Promotes microtubule destabilization and accelerates microtubule dynamics; this activity may be independent of acetylation activity. Acetylates alpha-tubulin with a slow enzymatic rate, due to a catalytic site that is not optimized for acetyl transfer. Enters the microtubule through each end and diffuses quickly throughout the lumen of microtubules. Acetylates only long/old microtubules because of its slow acetylation rate since it does not have time to act [...]

kap-1
Kinesin-Associated Protein.
      
 0.758
klp-11
Kinesin-like protein; Belongs to the TRAFAC class myosin-kinesin ATPase superfamily. Kinesin family.
  
   
 0.757
spas-1
Probable spastin homolog spas-1; Severs microtubules, probably in an ATP-dependent fashion. Belongs to the AAA ATPase family. Spastin subfamily.
   
  
 0.736
ttll-5
Tubulin polyglutamylase ttll-5; Polyglutamylase which preferentially modifies alpha-tubulin (By similarity). Involved in the side-chain initiation step of the polyglutamylation reaction rather than in the elongation step (By similarity). Together with ttll-4 and ttll-11, required for male mating. Probably by regulating microtubule stability via the glutamylation of tubulin, negatively regulates axon regrowth after injury in PLM neurons.
  
  
0.733
osm-3
Osmotic avoidance abnormal protein 3; Kinesin motor protein which is required for the anterograde intraflagellar transport (IFT) along the middle segment of the sensory neuron cilia together with the kinesin II motor complex (composed of klp-11, klp-20 and kap-1) and on its own, is required for IFT along the distal segment. In addition, regulates the length of cilia. May have a role during neurogenesis and axonal transport.
      
 0.704
klp-13
Kinesin-like protein; Belongs to the TRAFAC class myosin-kinesin ATPase superfamily. Kinesin family.
