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

slboCCAAT/enhancer-binding protein; Slow border cells (slbo) encodes an essential transcriptional activator. Although null mutants are lethal, female-sterile alleles exhibit a specific defect in border cell migration during ovarian development. In this context, Jak/STAT signaling controls slbo expression, which in turn regulates hundreds of downstream targets including the product of shg. (449 aa)    
Predicted Functional Partners:
trbl
Tribbles; Adapter protein that negatively regulates different signaling pathways to coordinate cell differentiation, proliferation, migration and growth. Functions by binding to key regulatory proteins and either blocks their activity or regulates their turnover by the proteasome. In various developing tissues functions as a cell cycle regulator that mediates cell proliferation according to the requirements of the developmental program. Acts by inducing the proteasomal degradation of the CD25 mitotic activators stg and twe at critical stages of development to delay entry into mitosis a [...]

Cdk2
Cyclin-dependent kinase 2 (Cdk2) encodes a catalytic protein kinase subunit that can only become active after association with the product of CycE. The protein kinase activity of the CycE-Cdk2 complex controls important aspects of progression through the G1 and S phases of the cell cycle. In addition, periodic CycE-Cdk2 activity regulates progression through endoreduplication cycles; Belongs to the protein kinase superfamily. CMGC Ser/Thr protein kinase family. CDC2/CDKX subfamily.

Jra
Transcription factor AP-1; Transcription factor that recognizes and binds to the enhancer heptamer motif 5'-TGA[CG]TCA-3'. Plays a role in dorsal closure. Belongs to the bZIP family. Jun subfamily.
    
 
 0.775
rl
Mitogen-activated protein kinase ERK-A; Serine/threonine kinase which acts as an essential component of the MAP kinase signal transduction pathway to regulate poliferation, differentiation and effect cell fate decisions in various tissues. Required downstream of phl/Raf in the sev/sevenless, tor/torso, and EGF receptor homolog Egfr signal transduction pathways. Required for embryonic epithelial tissue repair. During larval development, mediates Ptth/tor signaling leading to the production of ecdysone, a hormone required for the initiation of metamorphosis.
    
 0.765
NFAT
NFAT nuclear factor, isoform B; DNA-binding transcription factor activity; chromatin binding; transcription factor binding; RNA polymerase II cis-regulatory region sequence-specific DNA binding. It is involved in the biological process described with: positive regulation of transcription by RNA polymerase II; negative regulation of synaptic vesicle exocytosis; response to salt stress.
      
 0.748
crc
Cryptocephal, isoform A; Cryptocephal (crc) encodes a protein that belongs to a member of the CREB/ATF family of basic-leucine zipper transcription factors. It serves as an coactivator of the product EcR of to promote expression the molting peptide hormone encoded by ETH. It also acts as an unfolded protein response transcription factor to regulate glycolytic genes in response to ER stress.
   
 
 0.745
Usf
Usf, isoform B; Usf (Usf) encodes a bHLH family transcription factor that recognizes E-boxes in the Ste promoter.
    
 
 0.717
foxo
Forkhead box protein O; Transcription factor involved in the regulation of the insulin signaling pathway. Consistently activates both the downstream target Thord4EBP and the feedback control target InR. Involved in negative regulation of the cell cycle, modulating cell growth and proliferation. In response to cellular stresses, such as nutrient deprivation or increased levels of reactive oxygen species, foxo is activated and inhibits growth through the action of target genes such as Thor. Foxo activated in the adult fat body can regulate lifespan in adults; an insulin peptide itself m [...]

Cdk4
Cyclin-dependent kinase 4 (Cdk4) encodes a protein that contributes to cell cycle progression and cell growth. It is involved in the regulation of JAK-STAT and TORC1 signalling pathways.
    
 0.660
Sox100B
Sox100B (Sox100B) encodes a group E Sox domain transcription factor. It has a role in the development of somatic components of the testis during metamorphosis, where it regulates pigment cell specification. Sox100B shows sexually dimorphic expression in the embryonic gonad.
