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

tsrCofilin/actin-depolymerizing factor homolog; Exhibits F-actin depolymerizing activity and regulates actin cytoskeleton dynamics. Required for cytokinesis in both mitotic and meiotic cells and for aster migration and separation. Promotes cell motility during ovary development and oogenesis. During larval development, required for the cell rearrangement needed for formation of terminal filaments which are stacks of somatic cells that are important for the initiation of ovarioles. Also required for border cell migration during oogenesis. During border cell migration, required for actin tu [...] (148 aa)    
Predicted Functional Partners:
LIMK1
LIM domain kinase 1 (LIMK1) encodes a protein that belongs to a phylogenetically conserved family of serine/threonine kinases. It is a potent stabilizer of the actin cytoskeleton by inactivating the product of tsr. It stabilizes the synapse structure at the neuromuscular junction and promotes synaptic remodeling and glomerular development in the developing antennal lobe.

capt
Adenylyl cyclase-associated protein; Capulet (capt) encodes a conserved actin binding protein that functions across eukaryotes to negatively regulate actin filament assembly. Different types of actin filament formation are differentially affected by the loss of capt.
   
 
 0.991
chic
Profilin; Chickadee (chic) encodes an actin monomer binding protein that provides the major cellular pool of readily polymerizing ATP-actin monomers. It is involved in oogenesis, spermatogenesis, cell division, bristle formation, cellular morphogenesis, axon growth, filopodia formation, dorsal closure, wound healing and stem cell maintenance.
   
 
 0.987
flr
Actin-interacting protein 1; Induces disassembly of actin filaments in conjunction with ADF/cofilin family proteins. Essential for organismal and cell viability. Required for the development of normal wing cell planar polarity.
   
 
 0.963
ssh
Protein phosphatase Slingshot; Protein phosphatase which regulates actin filament dynamics. Dephosphorylates and activates the actin binding/depolymerizing factor tsr/cofilin, which subsequently binds to actin filaments and stimulates their disassembly. Required for axon growth.
    
 
 0.941
Cdc42
Cdc42 (Cdc42) encodes a GTPase signaling protein that acts as a molecular switch and functions as key regulator of the actin cytoskeleton. It plays a central role in diverse biological processes including actin cytoskeleton organization, mophogenesis, hemocyte migration, cell polarity, and wound repair.
   
  
 0.935
Gel
Gelsolin; Calcium-regulated, actin-modulating protein that binds to the plus (or barbed) ends of actin monomers or filaments, preventing monomer exchange (end-blocking or capping). It can promote the assembly of monomers into filaments (nucleation) as well as sever filaments already formed; Belongs to the villin/gelsolin family.
   
  
 0.923
form3
Formin 3, isoform B; Formin 3 (form3) encodes a protein that belongs to the formin family, which functions in various actin-based processes. It is involved in tracheal fusion.
    
 
 0.923
Cortactin
Cortactin, isoform A; Proline-rich region binding; actin filament binding.
   
 
 0.910
Arp2
Actin-related protein 2; Functions as ATP-binding component of the Arp2/3 complex which is involved in regulation of actin polymerization and together with an activating nucleation-promoting factor (NPF) mediates the formation of branched actin networks. Seems to contact the pointed end of the daughter actin filament (By similarity).
