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

lov-1Location of vulva defective 1; Required for two aspects of male mating behavior: response to hermaphrodite contact and vulva location. Acts in the same pathway as pkd-2 and atp-2 in response behavior. May be required for ciliary targeting of pkd-2. (3284 aa)    
Predicted Functional Partners:
pkd-2
Polycystin-2; Functions as a calcium permeable cation channel. Required for 2 aspects of male mating behavior: response to hermaphrodite contact and vulva location. Acts in the same pathway as lov-1 and atp-2 in response behavior.
   
 
0.993
cil-7
CILiary localization.
      
 0.851
klp-6
Kinesin-like protein; Belongs to the TRAFAC class myosin-kinesin ATPase superfamily. Kinesin family.
      
 0.850
ift-20
Intraflagellar transport protein 20 homolog; Component of the intraflagellar transport (IFT) complex B required for transport of proteins in the motile cilium. Required for ciliary entrance and transport of specific ciliary cargo proteins such as che-3 which are related to motility.
      
 0.828
bbs-1
Bardet-Biedl syndrome 1 protein homolog; Component of the BBSome complex (By similarity). The BBSome complex is thought to function as a coat complex required for sorting of specific membrane proteins to the primary cilia (By similarity). The BBSome complex is required for ciliogenesis but is dispensable for centriolar satellite function (By similarity). Required for proper BBSome complex assembly and its ciliary localization. Required for cilia biogenesis and both the assembly and movement of intraflagellar transport proteins along the ciliary axoneme.
      
 0.826
nphp-1
Nephrocystin-1-like protein; May be necessary for initial assembly of the cilium.
   
 
 0.817
nphp-4
NePHronoPhthisis (Human kidney disease) homolog.
   
 
 0.798
cwp-1
Coexpressed With Polycystins.
   
  
 0.770
osm-5
OSM-5.
      
 0.760
stam-1
Signal transducing adapter molecule 1; Binds, sorts and targets the polycystin complex (lov-1 and pkd-2) for lysosomal degradation, acting on early endosomes located at the ciliary base. Functions in the germline together with the ephrin receptor (vab-1) signaling pathway to negatively regulate MAPK activation. May have a role as a positive regulator of meiotic maturation in oocytes, acting independently of vab-1.
