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

cul-5Cullin-5; Probable core component of cullin-based SCF-like E3 ubiquitin-protein ligase complexes which mediate the ubiquitination and subsequent proteasomal degradation of target proteins. In association with rbx-2 seems to be involved in meiotic cell cycle progression in the germline. Required for phosphorylation of the MAP kinase MPK-1 in the germline. (765 aa)    
Predicted Functional Partners:
rbx-2
RING-type domain-containing protein.
    
 0.999
elb-1
RNA polymerase II transcription factor SIII p18 subunit.
    
 0.999
elc-1
Skp1_POZ domain-containing protein.
    
 0.999
rbx-1
RING-box protein 1; Component of the SCF (SKP1-CUL1-F-box protein) E3 ubiquitin ligase complex, which mediates the ubiquitination and subsequent proteasomal degradation of target proteins. Through the RING-type zinc finger, seems to recruit the E2 ubiquitination enzyme to the complex and brings it into close proximity to the substrate (By similarity). Essential for meiosis, mitotic chromosomal condensation and cytokinesis. Involved in histone H3 phosphorylation.
    
 0.999
ned-8
NEDD8; Ubiquitin-like protein which plays an important role in cell cycle control and embryogenesis. Covalent attachment to its substrates requires prior activation by the E1 complex uba-3-ula-1 and linkage to the E2 enzyme ubc-12. Attachment of ned-8 to cullins activates their associated E3 ubiquitin ligase activity, and thus promotes polyubiquitination and proteasomal degradation of cyclins and other regulatory proteins.
    
 0.998
elc-2
Skp1_POZ domain-containing protein; Belongs to the SKP1 family.
    
 
 0.995
cand-1
Cullin-associated NEDD8-dissociated protein 1; Key assembly factor of SCF (SKP1-CUL1-F-box protein) E3 ubiquitin ligase complexes that promotes the exchange of the substrate- recognition F-box subunit in SCF complexes, thereby playing a key role in the cellular repertoire of SCF complexes. Acts as a F-box protein exchange factor (Probable).
    
 0.957
bro-1
BROther (Drosophila tx factor partner) homolog.
    
 
 0.956
ari-2
Potential E3 ubiquitin-protein ligase ariadne-2; Might act as an E3 ubiquitin-protein ligase, or as part of E3 complex, which accepts ubiquitin from specific E2 ubiquitin-conjugating enzymes, such as UBC-2/UBE2L3, and then transfers it to substrates. Belongs to the RBR family. Ariadne subfamily.
   
 
 0.948
tceb-3
Transcription elongation factor B polypeptide 3; SIII, also known as elongin, is a general transcription elongation factor that increases the RNA polymerase II transcription elongation past template-encoded arresting sites. Subunit A is transcriptionally active and its transcription activity is strongly enhanced by binding to the dimeric complex of the SIII regulatory subunits B and C (elongin BC complex).
