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

certCeramide transfer protein (cert) encodes a protein involved in determination of lifespan. Mutant flies present accelerated aging due to oxidative stress. (601 aa)    
Predicted Functional Partners:
Vap33
VAMP-associated protein 33kDa, isoform B; VAMP-associated protein 33kDa (Vap33) encodes a protein that plays a conserved role in synaptic homeostasis. It controls a number of processes which depend on phosphoinositide levels, such as synaptic growth and axonal transport. It binds to the product of Sac1 to maintain normal levels of phosphoinositides and to the product of Dscam1 to affect its localization within axonal projections.

Start1
Steroidogenic acute regulatory protein-like; May bind to and transport cholesterol and may play a role in ecdysteroid biosynthesis.
   
  
 0.727
CG6565
LD05321p; Lipid binding.
      
 0.624
cv-c
Crossveinless c (cv-c) encodes a RhoGTPase activating protein required for the morphogenesis of many tissues through the regulation of actin organization and localization of basement membrane receptors. It regulates synaptic homeostasis at the neuromuscular junction and is required for sleep homeostasis.
      
 0.608
rdgB
Retinal degeneration B (rdgB) encodes a member of the Class IIA Phosphatidylinositol transfer protein (PITP) family. It supports multiple biochemical functions involving lipid transfer during G-protein coupled phospholipase C activation.
    
 
 0.583
Sk2
Sphingosine kinase 2 (Sk2) encodes a D-erythro-sphingosine kinase that contributes to sphingolipid metabolism, flight performance and ovulation.
   
 
 0.581
fwd
Four wheel drive (fwd) encodes a Golgi-localized lipid kinase that synthesizes phosphatidylinositol 4-phosphate from phosphatidylinositol. It is involved in spermatocyte cytokinesis and male fertility; Belongs to the PI3/PI4-kinase family.
   
  
 0.573
Cerk
Ceramide kinase (Cerk) encodes a protein that catalyzes phosphorylation of ceramide, helping to maintain ceramide levels, which in turn regulates photoreceptor structure and function. It is also a component of WntD signaling and mediates primordial germ cell migration.
      
 0.570
CG9945
DDB1- and CUL4-associated factor 11 homolog; It is involved in the biological process described with: proteasome-mediated ubiquitin-dependent protein catabolic process; Belongs to the WD repeat LEC14B family.
   
  
 0.542
Pi4KIIIalpha
Phosphatidylinositol 4-kinase III alpha (PI4KIIIalpha) encodes a lipid kinase that synthesizes phosphatidylinositol 4-phosphate from phosphatidylinositol. Its roles include localization of plasma membrane-associated cytoskeletal and membrane trafficking proteins, Hippo signaling regulation and polarization of developing oocytes; Belongs to the PI3/PI4-kinase family.
