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

Ilp7Insulin-like peptide 7 (Ilp7) encodes a secreted insulin-like peptide that binds to the receptor encoded by InR to activate the insulin signaling pathway. It is expressed by small populations of neurons and plays roles in female egg-site selection, sleep duration, and nutrient-dependent food intake and tracheal growth. (159 aa)    
Predicted Functional Partners:
Ilp6
Insulin-like peptide 6 (Ilp6) encodes a protein that promotes growth during starvation.
     
 0.990
Ilp1
Probable insulin-like peptide 1 A chain; Insulin receptor binding; hormone activity. It is involved in the biological process described with: insulin receptor signaling pathway.
     
 0.990
Ilp4
Insulin-like peptide 4 (Ilp4) encodes a protein involved in larval feeding behavior; Belongs to the insulin family.
     
 0.990
Ilp3
Insulin-like peptide 3 (Ilp3) encodes a peptide involved in the insulin signaling pathway, the sugar-mediated activation of TOR signaling, sleep and mating behavior in females.
     
 0.988
Ilp5
Insulin-like peptide 5 (Ilp5) encodes a peptide involved in the insulin signaling pathway, sleep and mating behavior in females; Belongs to the insulin family.
     
 0.988
Ilp2
Probable insulin-like peptide 2 A chain; Plays a role in regulating body size by increasing cell size and cell number of individual organs. Probably mediates its growth effects by acting as a ligand for the insulin receptor and transducing a signal via the Chico/PI3K/Akt(PKB) pathway.
     
 0.982
InR
Insulin-like receptor subunit beta 1; Has a ligand-stimulated tyrosine-protein kinase activity. Required for cell survival. Regulates body size and organ size by altering cell number and cell size in a cell-autonomous manner. Involved in the development of the embryonic nervous system, and is necessary for axon guidance and targeting in the visual system. Also plays a role in life-span determination.
     
 0.965
Ilp8
Insulin-like peptide 8 (Ilp8) encodes a divergent member of the insulin/IGF/relaxin-like family that acts through the relaxin receptor encoded by Lgr3. It coordinates growth status of tissues with developmental timing.
   
  
 0.892
Diap2
Death-associated inhibitor of apoptosis 2; Required for activation of NF-kappaB transcription factors in the immune deficiency (Imd) signaling cascade which is essential for innate immune responses upon infection by Gram-negative bacteria. Promotes cytoplasmic cleavage of Rel and its translocation to the nucleus where it drives expression of antimicrobial peptides. Binds, polyubiquitinates and activates Dredd which is required for Rel- mediated induction of antimicrobial peptides. Anti- apoptotic protein which binds, ubiquitinates and inactivates the effector caspase Drice. Suppresses [...]
      
 0.835
Lgr3
Leucine-rich repeat-containing G protein-coupled receptor 3 (Lgr3) encodes a protein activated by the relaxin-like hormone encoded by Ilp8, which coordinates organ growth.
