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

Drsl2Drosomycin-like 2 (Drsl2) encodes a secreted peptide with homology to the antifungal peptide encoded by Drs. (70 aa)    
Predicted Functional Partners:
dl
Embryonic polarity protein dorsal; Embryonic developmental protein. The lateral or ventral identity of a cell depends upon the concentration of this protein in its nucleus during the blastoderm stage. A morphogenetic protein that specifically binds to the kappa B-related consensus sequence 5'- GRGAAAANCC-3', located in the enhancer region of zygotic genes such as Zen, Twist, Snail and Decapentaplegic. Mediates an immune response in larvae. Part of a signaling pathway involving NF- kappa-B and Toll-related receptors, that functions in the apoptosis of unfit cells during cell competition [...]
     
  0.900
Dif
Dorsal-related immunity factor Dif; Mediates an immune response in larvae. DIF binds to the kappa-B consensus sequence 5'-GGRNNYYCC-3', located in the enhancer region of the immunity gene CECA1. Involved in the melanization immune response to bacterial challenge, possibly by acting in a Toll signaling pathway that downregulates Spn27A in response to infection. Part of a signaling pathway involving NF-kappa-B (rel) and Toll-related receptors, that functions in the apoptosis of unfit cells during cell competition. May be part of a NF-kappa-B and Tollo signaling cascade that regulates dev [...]

Es2
Splicing factor ESS-2 homolog; It is involved in the biological process described with: nervous system development; mRNA splicing, via spliceosome.
      
 0.720
LysX
Lysozyme X; Unlikely to play an active role in the humoral immune defense. May have a function in the digestion of bacteria in the food. May be involved in the clearance of bacteria from the larval gut before metamorphosis; Belongs to the glycosyl hydrolase 22 family.
   
  
 0.701
CecA2
Cecropin A2 (CecA2) encodes an antibacterial peptide with activity against Gram-negative bacteria. It is expressed in the fat body during the systemic immune response and in various epithelia, and it is regulated at the transcriptional level by the immune deficiency pathway.
      
 0.658
CecC
Cecropin-C; Cecropin C (CecC) encodes an antibacterial peptide with activity against Gram-negative bacteria. It is strongly expressed at the pupal stage.
   
  
 0.629
AttC
Immune-induced peptide 16; Attacin-C (AttC) encodes an immune inducible peptide that shows homology to antibacterial peptides having activity against Gram-negative bacteria; Belongs to the attacin/sarcotoxin-2 family.
   
  
 0.628
AttD
Attacin-D (AttD) encodes is an immune inducible peptide that shows homology to antibacterial peptides having activity against Gram-negative bacteria.
      
 0.626
Dso1
Immune-induced peptide 4; It is involved in the biological process described with: defense response; cell morphogenesis; humoral immune response; response to bacterium.
      
 0.609
Mtk
Metchnikowin (Mtk) encodes an antifungal peptide that is secreted from the fat body during the systemic immune response, and is produced by various epithelia. Its expression is regulated at the transcriptional level by the immune deficiency and/or Toll pathways.
      
 0.606
