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

mel-26Protein maternal effect lethal 26; Probable substrate-specific adapter of an E3 ubiquitin- protein ligase complex which mediates the ubiquitination and subsequent proteasomal degradation of target proteins. Controls degradation of microtubule severing protein mei-1 after meiosis. Controls degradation of ppfr-1, the regulatory subunit of PP4 complex, after meiosis. In body wall muscles, involved in the organization of myosin thick filaments, likely by regulating the degradation of mei-1 downstream of unc-89. May also activate the TORC1 pathway. (399 aa)    
Predicted Functional Partners:
cul-3
Cullin-3; Probable core component of multiple cullin-RING-based BCB (BTB-CUL3-BTB) E3 ubiquitin-protein ligase complexes which mediate the ubiquitination and subsequent proteasomal degradation of target proteins. Probably acts as a scaffold protein which may contribute to catalysis through positioning of the substrate and the ubiquitin-conjugating enzyme. Required to target mei-3/katanin for degradation at the meiosis to mitosis transition via its neddylation and deneddylation. Functions in ubiquitin-mediated degradation of CKIs to target cki-1 for degradation. Regulates microtubule st [...]

mei-1
Meiotic spindle formation protein mei-1; Catalytic subunit of a complex which severs microtubules in an ATP-dependent manner. Microtubule severing may promote rapid reorganization of cellular microtubule arrays. Required specifically for meiotic spindle formation in the female germline; the presence of this protein is inimical to the formation of mitotic spindles. In body wall muscles, regulates organization of myosin thick filaments.
   
 
 0.983
mei-2
Meiotic spindle formation protein 2; Forms a heterodimeric complex in conjunction with mei-1 which severs microtubules in vitro in an ATP-dependent manner. This activity may promote rapid reorganization of cellular microtubule arrays. May act to target mei-1 within the cell. Required specifically for meiotic spindle formation in the female germline.

cpna-1
Copine family protein 1; Involved in the assembly of dense bodies and M lines during body wall muscle development. Acts by recruiting downstream of integrin-associated protein pat-6/actopaxin several dense bodies and M line components including unc-89, lim-9, scpl-1 and unc-96 to integrin- mediated attachment sites.

cul-1
Cullin-1; Probable core component of multiple cullin-RING-based SCF (SKP1-CUL1-F-box) E3 ubiquitin-protein ligase complexes which mediate the ubiquitination and subsequent proteasomal degradation of target proteins. As a scaffold protein may contribute to catalysis through positioning of the substrate and the ubiquitin-conjugating enzyme. Required for developmentally programmed transitions from the G1 phase of the cell cycle to the G0 phase or the apoptotic pathway.
   
 
 0.838
mbk-2
Dual specificity tyrosine-phosphorylation-regulated kinase mbk-2; Required for oocyte-to-zygote transition in which it phosphorylates oocyte proteins, including mei-1, oma-1, oma-2, mex-5, and mex-6, modifying their activity and/or stability following meiosis. Functions in both spindle positioning and in the posterior localization of cytoplasmic determinants, including pie-1, pos-1, and pgl-1, in early embryos. Involved in the asymmetric distribution of plk-1 at the 2-cell embryonic stage.

figl-1
Fidgetin-like protein 1; Has a role in spindle assembly which acts in the progression through mitosis during embryogenesis. Required for fertility.
   
 
 0.827
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.

M02B7.7
Uncharacterized protein.
   
   0.767
ppfr-1
Serine/threonine-protein phosphatase 4 regulatory subunit 1; Probable regulatory subunit of serine/threonine-protein phosphatase PP4 which may play a role in meiosis and embryonic mitosis. Probably in association with catalytic subunit pph-4.1, regulates microtubule severing during oocyte meiosis II by dephosphorylating and likely activating mei-1, a component of the katanin microtubule severing complex.
