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

sorf-1Suppressor of organelle fusion 1; Together with sorf-2 negatively regulates the levels of phosphatidylinositol 3-phosphate (PtdIns3P) to enable the conversion of early endosomes to late endosomes. Binds to sorf-2 and the sorf-1-sorf- 2 complex likely acts through bec-1, a non-catalytic subunit of phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase (PI3K), to suppress PI3K activity, thereby negatively regulating endosomal PtdIns3P levels. Belongs to the WD repeat WDR91 family. (239 aa)

vps-18
Vacuolar protein sorting-associated protein 18 homolog; Plays a role in vesicle-mediated protein trafficking to lysosomal compartments including the endocytic membrane transport and autophagic pathways. Believed to act as a core component of the putative HOPS and CORVET endosomal tethering complexes which are proposed to be involved in the rab-5-to-rab-7 endosome conversion probably implicating sand-1, and via binding SNAREs and SNARE complexes to mediate tethering and docking events during SNARE-mediated membrane fusion (By similarity). The HOPS complex is proposed to be recruited to [...]

mtm-5
Myotubularin-related protein 5; Probably acts as an adapter for other myotubularin-like phosphatases (Probable); Belongs to the protein-tyrosine phosphatase family. Non- receptor class myotubularin subfamily.

mtm-1
Myotubularin-related protein 1; Dephosphorylates phosphatidylinositol 3-phosphate (PI3P) and phosphatidylinositol 3,5-bisphosphate (PI(3,5)P2). Negatively regulates accumulation of PI3P on intracellular vesicles. Negatively regulates phagocytosis of apoptotic cells probably by limiting the recruitment and/or the activation of ced-5, ced-2 and ced-12 complex. In addition, may positively regulate phagosome maturation by promoting recycling of apoptotic receptor ced-1 back to the plasma membrane. Essential for embryonic and larval development. May promote migration of distal tip cells ; B [...]

vps-33.1
Vacuolar protein sorting-associated protein 33A; Plays a role in vesicle-mediated protein trafficking to lysosomal compartments including the endocytic membrane transport pathways. Believed to act as a component of the putative HOPS endosomal tethering complex which is proposed to be involved in the rab-5-to-rab-7 endosome conversion probably implicating sand-1, and via binding SNAREs and SNARE complexes to mediate tethering and docking events during SNARE- mediated membrane fusion. The HOPS complex is proposed to be recruited to rab-7 on the late endosomal membrane and to regulate lat [...]

mtm-3
Myotubularin-related protein 3; Preferentially dephosphorylates phosphatidylinositol 3- phosphate (PI3P), and has some activity towards phosphatidylinositol 3,5-bisphosphate (PI35P). May also dephosphorylate proteins phosphorylated on Ser, Thr, and Tyr residues (By similarity). Positively regulates autophagy and is recruited to autophagosomes by PI3P where it catalyzes PI3P turnover to promote autophagosome maturation. Thought to have a role in maintenance of muscle function. Involved in locomotion and lifespan determination.

bec-1
Beclin homolog; Regulates autophagy. Together with phosphatidyl-3-phosphate kinase vps-34, acts as a core subunit of the PI3K complex that mediates formation of phosphatidylinositol 3- phosphate (PtdIns3P), thereby regulating membrane trafficking. In association with sorf-1 and sorf-2, negatively regulates phosphatidylinositol 3- phosphate in early endosomes to allow for the conversion to late endosomes. Involved in the clearance of engulfed apoptotic cell corpses. Together with ced-9, negatively regulates somatic and germline apoptosis. Plays a role in endosome-to-Golgi retrograde tra [...]
