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

CdsPhosphatidate cytidylyltransferase, photoreceptor-specific; Catalyzes the conversion of phosphatidic acid (PA) to CDP- diacylglycerol (CDP-DAG), an important precursor for the synthesis of phosphatidylinositol (PtdIns) and phosphatidylglycerol (PG). Required for the regeneration of the signaling molecule phosphatidylinositol 4,5-bisphosphate (PtdInsP2) from PA and maintenance of its steady supply during signaling thus playing an essential role during phospholipase C-mediated transduction. In the salivary glands and possibly other adipose tissues, function is essential for regulating ce [...] (447 aa)    
Predicted Functional Partners:
Pis
CDP-diacylglycerol--inositol 3-phosphatidyltransferase; Catalyzes the biosynthesis of phosphatidylinositol (PtdIns) as well as PtdIns:inositol exchange reaction. May thus act to reduce an excessive cellular PtdIns content (By similarity). The exchange activity is due to the reverse reaction of PtdIns synthase and is dependent on CMP, which is tightly bound to the enzyme (By similarity). Required for the regeneration of the signaling molecule phosphatidylinositol 4,5- bisphosphate (PtdInsP2) from phosphatidic acid (PA) and maintenance of its steady supply during signaling, thus playing [...]

Lpin
Lipin, isoform A; Lipin (Lpin) encodes a protein that plays a central role in fat body function and energy metabolism. It works as a phosphatidate phosphatase required for normal insulin pathway signaling.
   
 
 0.977
Dgkepsilon
Diacyl glycerol kinase epsilon (Dgkepsilon) encodes a kinase that plays a key role in the metabolism of diacylglycerol by converting diacylglycerol into phosphatidic acid.
   
 
 0.966
CLS
Probable cardiolipin synthase (CMP-forming); Catalyzes the synthesis of cardiolipin (CL) (diphosphatidylglycerol) by specifically transferring a phosphatidyl group from CDP-diacylglycerol to phosphatidylglycerol (PG). CL is a key phospholipid in mitochondrial membranes and plays important roles in maintaining the functional integrity and dynamics of mitochondria under both optimal and stress conditions.

CG31140
Nucleic acid binding; NAD+ kinase activity; diacylglycerol kinase activity.
     
 0.964
CG7718
CDP-diacylglycerol--glycerol-3-phosphate 3-phosphatidyltransferase; Functions in the biosynthesis of the anionic phospholipids phosphatidylglycerol and cardiolipin; Belongs to the CDP-alcohol phosphatidyltransferase class-II family.
     
 0.962
rdgA
Retinal degeneration A (rdgA) encodes a diacylglycerol kinase that mediates the conversion of diacylglycerol to phosphatidic acid. It contributes to phospholipase C based signalling reactions, controlling ion channel activity and protein transport.
    
 0.952
Agpat1
1-acylglycerol-3-phosphate O-acyltransferase activity. It is involved in the biological process described with: phosphatidic acid biosynthetic process; Belongs to the 1-acyl-sn-glycerol-3-phosphate acyltransferase family.
     
 0.930
Pld
Phospholipase; Phosphatidylinositol binding; phospholipase D activity.
     
 0.930
Dgk
Diacylglycerol kinase 1; Upon cell stimulation converts the second messenger diacylglycerol into phosphatidate, initiating the resynthesis of phosphatidylinositols and attenuating protein kinase C activity (By similarity). May have a role in the development of the embryonic nervous system and the function of the adult nervous system and muscle; regulating signal transduction in neurons.
