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

bab1Protein bric-a-brac 1; Bric a brac 1 (bab1) encodes a transcriptional regulator that functions partially redundantly with the product of bab2. It is part of the conserved proximal-distal gene regulatory network module. It contributes to pattern formation, ovary morphogenesis, abdominal pigmentation and olfactory receptor neuron fate diversity. (977 aa)    
Predicted Functional Partners:
bip2
Bip2 (bip2) encodes a protein that interacts with the transcription factor encoded by Trl and is involved in transcriptional activation.
    
 
 0.743
dsx
Protein doublesex; Controls somatic sexual differentiation. Binds directly and specifically to the FBE (fat body enhancer) of the yolk protein 1 and 2 genes (Yp1 and Yp2). This enhancer is sufficient to direct the female- specific transcription characteristic of the Yp genes in adult fat bodies. Involved in regulation of male-specific expression of takeout in brain-associated fat body.

CG15370
Uncharacterized protein.
      
 0.680
e
LP19442p; Ebony (e) encodes a protein that links beta-alanine to biogenic amines like dopamine or histamine. It controls the amount of free biogenic amine, e.g. of dopamine in cuticle formation and of histamine in visual signal transduction of the eye. It is also involved in behavioral rhythmicity.
      
 0.662
Abd-B
Homeobox protein abdominal-B; Abdominal B (Abd-B) is one of the three hox genes of the bithorax complex. The product of Abd-B specifies the identity of the posterior abdominal segments, the external genitalia and the gonads. It is also involved in regulating the post-mating-response.
   
  
 0.651
LamC
Lamin-C; Lamins are components of the nuclear lamina, a fibrous layer on the nucleoplasmic side of the inner nuclear membrane, which is thought to provide a framework for the nuclear envelope and may also interact with chromatin (By similarity). In spermatocytes, regulates cytokinesis during meiosis.
      
 0.628
Dll
Homeotic protein distal-less; Transcription factor that plays a role in larval and adult appendage development. Specifies the identity of ventral appendages (including legs and antennae) and suppresses dorsal appendage development. Involved in patterning the distal-proximal limb axis. May control the adhesive properties of cells during limb morphogenesis. Also has a secondary role in the normal patterning of the wing margin.
   
  
 0.515
bip1
Bip1, isoform A; POZ domain binding. It is involved in the biological process described with: larval lymph gland hemopoiesis.
      
 0.514
CG4766
Protein mab-21-like; Belongs to the mab-21 family.
      
 0.491
tfc
Triforce, isoform B; Carbohydrate binding.
      
 0.461
