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

dibDisembodied (dib) encodes a cytochrome P450 involved in ecdysteroid biosynthesis. It shows a mitochondrial localization and catalyzes the addition of a hydroxyl group to the 22 carbon of the cholesterol side chain. dib mutants fail to undergo head involution, dorsal closure and to secrete cuticle. (489 aa)    
Predicted Functional Partners:
phm
Phantom (phm) encodes a cytochrome P450 involved in ecdysteroid biosynthesis. It is an endoplasmic reticulum protein that catalyzes the addition of a hydroxyl group to the 25 carbon of the cholesterol side chain. phm mutants fail to undergo head involution, dorsal closure and cuticle secretion.
  
0.962
spok
Spookier (spok) encodes a cytochrome P450 involved in ecdysteroid biosynthesis that is expressed primarily in the prothoracic gland and is localized in the endoplasmic reticulum. Genetic evidence suggests that the product of spok acts with the products of sro and Cyp6t3 to catalyze conversion of 7 dehydrocholesterol to delta4, diketol during the ecdysone biosynthetic pathway.
  
 
 0.958
sad
Shadow (sad) encodes a cytochrome P450 involved in ecdysteroid biosynthesis. It shows a mitochondrial localization and catalyzes the addition of a hydroxyl group to the 2 carbon of the cholesterol ring. sad mutants fail to undergo head involution, dorsal closure or to secrete cuticle.
  
 
0.957
nvd
Rieske-domain protein Neverland; Neverland (nvd) encodes an evolutionarily conserved oxygenase-like protein that is required for the biosynthesis pathway of ecdysone. It converts cholesterol to 7-dehydrocholesterol.
  
  
 0.921
sro
Shroud (sro) encodes a short-chain dehydrogenase/reductase that is essential for ecdysone biosynthesis. It is hypothesized to work in the conversion of 7-dehydrocholesterol to 5beta-ketodiol; Belongs to the short-chain dehydrogenases/reductases (SDR) family.
   
  
 0.904
Ptth
Prothoracicotropic hormone, isoform F; Prothoracicotropic hormone (Ptth) encodes a secreted neuropeptide that regulates ecdysone production contributing to larval to pupal transition. It signals through Torso/RAS/Erk pathway. It also modulates larval light avoidance independently of ecdysone.
      
 0.835
GstE14
Glutathione S-transferase E14; Conjugation of reduced glutathione to a wide number of exogenous and endogenous hydrophobic electrophiles. Essential for ecdysteroid biosynthesis. May be involved in detoxification.
   
  
 0.811
spo
Spook (spo) encodes a cytochrome P450 involved in ecdysteroid biosynthesis in the embryo. spo mutants fail to undergo head involution, dorsal closure or to secrete cuticle.
  
 
0.745
EcR
Ecdysone receptor (EcR) encodes a protein that interacts with the product of usp to form the nuclear ecdysone receptor heterodimer, which modulates, in conjunction with co-activators and co-repressors, the activities of hundreds of genes in a tissue- and stage-specific way. EcR is widely expressed in embryonic and larval tissues and in some adult tissues where its activities (modulated by the hormone ecdysone) trigger both molting and metamorphosis.
    
 
 0.703
Hr4
Hormone receptor 4; Coordinates growth and maturation by mediating endocrine responses to the attainment of critical weight during larval development. Plays a central role in the genetic cascades triggered by the steroid hormone ecdysone at the onset of metamorphosis, acting as both a repressor of the early ecdysone-induced regulatory genes and an inducer of the ftz-f1 midprepupal competence factor. Belongs to the nuclear hormone receptor family. NR1 subfamily.
