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

eIF4E4Eukaryotic translation initiation factor 4E4 (eIF4E4) encodes a protein involved in translational initiation. (229 aa)    
Predicted Functional Partners:
Thor
4E-binding protein THOR; Thor (Thor) encodes a eukaryotic translation initiation factor 4E binding protein that is controlled by the product of tor. It contributes to translation regulation, response to environmental stress and cell growth regulation.
    
 0.999
pAbp
Polyadenylate-binding protein; Binds the poly(A) tail of mRNA. Since it interacts with the cap-associating translation initiation factor eIF4G, it is likely that it functions by linking Atx2 to the cap-binding complex. Forms a complex with tyf and Atx2 which functions in adult circadian pacemaker neurons to sustain circadian rhythms likely by switching between activator and repressor modes of post-transcriptional regulation via interaction with Lsm12a or me31B, respectively. The activator complex (Atx2-tyf activator complex) activates the TYF-dependent translation of per to maintain 24 [...]

eIF4G1
Eukaryotic translation initiation factor 4G1 (eIF4G1) encodes a protein that contributes to translation and spermatogenesis.
   
 0.999
eIF4A
Eukaryotic initiation factor 4A; ATP-dependent RNA helicase which is a subunit of the eIF4F complex involved in cap recognition and is required for mRNA binding to ribosome. In the current model of translation initiation, eIF4A unwinds RNA secondary structures in the 5'-UTR of mRNAs which is necessary to allow efficient binding of the small ribosomal subunit, and subsequent scanning for the initiator codon. Involved in germ cell formation.
   
 0.999
eIF4B
Eukaryotic translation initiation factor 4B (eIF4B) encodes a protein involved in cap-dependent translation, cell survival, and proliferation.
   
 
 0.998
CG5800
ATP binding; RNA helicase activity; RNA binding. It is involved in the biological process described with: rRNA processing; larval somatic muscle development.
   
 
 0.989
Cyfip
Cytoplasmic FMR1-interacting protein; Specifically Rac1-associated protein 1 (Sra-1) encodes an essential protein that is a component of the WAVE actin nucleator complex. It controls actin cytoskeleton remodeling and interacts with the products of Fmr1 and Rac1. It controls morphogenesis and synapse organization.
    
 0.980
me31B
ATP-dependent RNA helicase me31b; ATP-dependent RNA helicase which is a core component of a variety of ribonucleoprotein complexes (RNPs) that play critical roles in translational repression and mRNA decapping during embryogenesis, oogenesis, neurogenesis and neurotransmission. Recruits core components and translational repressors to some RNP complexes, and mediates RNP aggregation into processing granules such as P-bodies. As part of a RNP complex containing tral, eIF4E1, cup, and pAbp, involved in RNP-mediated translational repression of maternal mRNAs during oogenesis and embryogene [...]
    
 
 0.975
eIF5
Eukaryotic translation initiation factor 5; Catalyzes the hydrolysis of GTP bound to the 40S ribosomal initiation complex (40S.mRNA.Met-tRNA[F].eIF-2.GTP) with the subsequent joining of a 60S ribosomal subunit resulting in the release of eIF-2 and the guanine nucleotide. The subsequent joining of a 60S ribosomal subunit results in the formation of a functional 80S initiation complex (80S.mRNA.Met-tRNA[F]) (By similarity).
   
 0.970
NAT1
NAT1, isoform D; NAT1 (NAT1) encodes a protein involved in chaeta development.
