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

alg-4Putative protein tag-76. (1040 aa)    
Predicted Functional Partners:
dcr-1
Death-promoting deoxyribonuclease; Involved in cleaving double-stranded RNA in the RNA interference (RNAi) pathway. It produces 21 to 23 bp dsRNAs (siRNAs) which target the selective destruction of homologous RNAs. Seems to process the precursor of the small temporal RNA let-7 which is involved in developmental timing. Belongs to the helicase family. Dicer subfamily.
   
 0.853
rde-4
RNA interference promoting factor.
    
 0.851
C36H8.1
Major sperm protein; Central component in molecular interactions underlying sperm crawling. Forms an extensive filament system that extends from sperm villipoda, along the leading edge of the pseudopod.
   
    0.839
wago-10
Piwi-like protein; Belongs to the argonaute family.
   
 
0.814
F32H2.7
Uncharacterized protein.
   
    0.774
alg-3
Argonaute (Plant)-Like protein.
  
 
0.767
ergo-1
Piwi-like protein ergo-1; Argonaute protein required for gene silencing in the endogenous RNA interference (RNAi) pathway. Involved in the 26G RNAi pathway and associates with both unmethylated and methylated 26G small interfering RNAs (26G- siRNAs), which are a class of 26 nucleotide siRNAs that possess a guanine residue at the 5'-end. Associated 26G-siRNAs are methylated by the methyltransferase henn-1, which stabilizes the siRNAs. Association with 26G- siRNAs is required for the biogenesis of secondary 22G-siRNAs (a class of 22 nucleotide siRNAs that possess a triphosphorylated guan [...]
     
0.749
henn-1
Small RNA 2'-O-methyltransferase; Methyltransferase that adds a 2'-O-methyl group at the 3'-end of PIWI-interacting RNAs (piRNAs) and small interfering RNAs (siRNAs) which are classes of regulatory RNAs that are involved in gene silencing in endogenous RNA interference (RNAi) pathways. Methylation protects the 3'-end of small RNAs from tailing and trimming and could constitute a recognition signal for appropriate argonaute machineries (Probable). Methylates and stabilizes 26G-siRNAs (a class of 26 nucleotide siRNAs that possess a monophosphorylated guanine residue at the 5'-end) when t [...]

ego-1
RNA-directed RNA polymerase related EGO-1.
      
 0.726
rrf-3
RNA-dependent RNA polymerase Family.
