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

gur-5GUstatory Receptor family. (408 aa)    
Predicted Functional Partners:
str-97
Seven TM Receptor.
    
 
 0.776
lite-1
High-energy light unresponsive protein 1; Photoreceptor for short wavelength (UV) light that mediates UV-light-induced avoidance behavior. Directly senses and absorbs both UV-A and UV-B light with very high efficiency. Absorption of UV-B but not UV-A light shows resistance to photobleaching. In contrast to other photoreceptors, does not use a prosthetic chromophore to capture photons and only depends on its protein conformation.
    
 
 0.765
gur-3
Gustatory receptor family protein 3; Chemoreceptor involved in light-induced avoidance behavior. Probably acts as a molecular sensor in I2 pharyngeal neurons, required for the inhibition of feeding in response to light and hydrogen peroxide. Involved in circadian rhythms, probably by acting as a light sensor. In contrast to lite-1, does not act as a photoreceptor.
    
 
 0.765
gale-1
UDP-glucose 4-epimerase; Catalyzes two distinct but analogous reactions: the reversible epimerization of UDP-glucose to UDP-galactose and the reversible epimerization of UDP-N-acetylglucosamine to UDP-N- acetylgalactosamine. The reaction with UDP-Gal plays a critical role in the Leloir pathway of galactose catabolism in which galactose is converted to the glycolytic intermediate glucose 6-phosphate. It contributes to the catabolism of dietary galactose and enables the endogenous biosynthesis of both UDP-Gal and UDP-GalNAc when exogenous sources are limited. Both UDP-sugar interconversi [...]
      
 0.666
glr-7
GLutamate Receptor family (AMPA); Belongs to the glutamate-gated ion channel (TC 1.A.10.1) family.
      
 0.589
egl-47
Egg laying defective EGL-47A; Belongs to the insect chemoreceptor superfamily. Gustatory receptor (GR) family.
      
 0.531
glr-8
Lig_chan-Glu_bd domain-containing protein.
      
 0.530
str-116
Seven TM Receptor.
   
   0.431
acr-7
Acetylcholine receptor subunit alpha-type acr-7; After binding acetylcholine, the AChR responds by an extensive change in conformation that affects all subunits and leads to opening of an ion-conducting channel across the plasma membrane.
