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

XpacDNA repair protein complementing XP-A cells homolog; Involved in DNA excision repair. Initiates repair by binding to damaged sites with various affinities, depending on the photoproduct and the transcriptional state of the region (By similarity). Belongs to the XPA family. (296 aa)    
Predicted Functional Partners:
Ercc1
Nucleotide excision repair protein ERCC1; Ercc1 (Ercc1) encodes the non-catalytic partner of the nuclease encoded by mei-9 that cuts structures formed during DNA repair. The mei-9-Ercc1 heterodimer interacts with the product of mus312 to make meiotic crossovers. The functions of the product of Ercc1 include repair of UV-induced DNA damage, repair of base adducts, a backup pathway for mismatch repair and meiotic recombination.

Xpd
Xeroderma pigmentosum D (Xpd) encodes a DNA helicase that is a subunit of the basal transcription and DNA repair factor TFIIH.
   
 0.997
mei-9
DNA repair endonuclease XPF; Implicated in recombination events during meiosis, mostly in meiotic exchange. May directly resolve Holliday junctions within recombination intermediates leading to DNA exchange. Also required for the repair of mismatches within meiotic heteroduplex DNA and for nucleotide excision repair.

hay
General transcription and DNA repair factor IIH helicase subunit XPB; ATP-dependent 3'-5' DNA helicase, component of the general transcription and DNA repair factor IIH (TFIIH) core complex, which is involved in general and transcription-coupled nucleotide excision repair (NER) of damaged DNA and, when complexed to CAK, in RNA transcription by RNA polymerase II. In NER, TFIIH acts by opening DNA around the lesion to allow the excision of the damaged oligonucleotide and its replacement by a new DNA fragment. The ATPase activity of haywire/XPB/ERCC3, but not its helicase activity, is req [...]

Tfb1
General transcription factor IIH subunit 1; Component of the general transcription and DNA repair factor IIH (TFIIH) core complex, which is involved in general and transcription-coupled nucleotide excision repair (NER) of damaged DNA and, when complexed to CAK, in RNA transcription by RNA polymerase II. In NER, TFIIH acts by opening DNA around the lesion to allow the excision of the damaged oligonucleotide and its replacement by a new DNA fragment. In transcription, TFIIH has an essential role in transcription initiation. When the pre-initiation complex (PIC) has been established, TFII [...]

RpA-70
Replication protein A 70 kDa DNA-binding subunit; As part of the heterotrimeric replication protein A complex (RPA/RP-A), binds and stabilizes single-stranded DNA intermediates, that form during DNA replication or upon DNA stress. It prevents their reannealing and in parallel, recruits and activates different proteins and complexes involved in DNA metabolism. Thereby, it plays an essential role both in DNA replication and the cellular response to DNA damage.
    
 
 0.940
RPA2
Replication protein A2, isoform A; Single-stranded DNA binding. It is involved in the biological process described with: double-strand break repair via homologous recombination; DNA repair; DNA replication; nucleotide-excision repair.
   
 0.939
Msh6
Probable DNA mismatch repair protein Msh6; Msh6 (Msh6) encodes a heterodimer with the product of spel1 to detect base-base mismatches and small insertion/deletion loops. It then recruits the rest of the mismatch repair machinery.
   
 0.937
mus81
EG:BACR7A4.16 protein; Mus81 (mus81) encodes the catalytic subunit of the Mus81-mms4 structure-selective endonuclease that functions in DNA repair.
   
 
 0.931
RecQ4
RecQ4 helicase (RecQ4) encodes an important protein for genome stability and DNA metabolism. It can utilize energy from ATP hydrolysis to help the DNA strand separation and exchange, playing a critical role in replication and repair.
