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

vnVein (vn) encodes a secreted neuregulin-like EGFR ligand. It has weaker intrinsic activity, and a lower receptor affinity, than the TGFalpha-like ligand encoded by spi. It has roles in growth and patterning of tissues including muscle, midgut, ovary, trachea, glia, eye, leg, and wing. (623 aa)    
Predicted Functional Partners:
Egfr
Epidermal growth factor receptor; Binds to four ligands: Spitz, Gurken, Vein and Argos, which is an antagonist. Transduces the signal through the ras-raf-MAPK pathway. Involved in a myriad of developmental decisions. Critical for the proliferation of imaginal tissues, and for the determination of both the antero-posterior and dorso-ventral polarities of the oocyte. In the embryo, plays a role in the establishment of ventral cell fates, maintenance of amnioserosa and ventral neuroectodermal cells, germ band retraction, cell fate specification in the central nervous system and production [...]

Shc
SHC-adaptor protein (Shc) encodes a protein involved in receptor tyrosine kinase signalling. It regulates anti-parasitoid immune response and tracheal development.
     
 0.816
spi
Protein spitz; Ligand for the EGF receptor (Gurken). Involved in a number of unrelated developmental choices, for example, dorsal-ventral axis formation, glial migration, sensory organ determination, and muscle development. It is required for photoreceptor determination.
    
 
 0.801
dos
Protein daughter of sevenless; Essential component for signaling from various receptor tyrosine kinases such as Sevenless, TORSO and DER. Required for photoreceptor cell and wing development.
     
 0.792
Ras85D
Ras-like protein 1; Ras proteins bind GDP/GTP and possess intrinsic GTPase activity (By similarity). Plays a role in eye development by regulating cell growth, survival of postmitotic ommatidial cells and differentiation of photoreceptor cells. During larval development, mediates Ptth/tor signaling leading to the production of ecdysone, a hormone required for the initiation of metamorphosis.
    
 0.753
Src64B
Tyrosine-protein kinase Src64B; Src oncogene at 64B (Src64B) encodes a Src family nonreceptor tyrosine kinase. It has many biological roles, including ring canal morphogenesis in oogenesis and the male germline, microfilament ring constriction during cellularization, and modulation of growth and apoptosis. Some of its roles overlap with those of the product of Src42A.
   
 0.732
Csk
C-terminal Src kinase (Csk) encodes a cytoplasmic tyrosine kinase that acts as a tumor suppressor through Src pathway inibition as well as a mediator of the activity of the product of Egfr.
    
 0.729
elgi
Early girl (elgi) encodes a myosin binding protein involved in the regulation of meiosis and Fat signaling pathway.
    
  0.717
Pi3K21B
Pi3K21B, isoform B; Pi3K21B (Pi3K21B) encodes an adaptor protein (p60) that binds the product of Pi3K92E to form the functional cllass IA phosphoinositide 3-kinase. This heterodimeric kinase is involved in phosphatidylinositol phosphorylation and regulates cell size and proliferation.
     
 0.707
CG8031
LP04475p; It is involved in the biological process described with: regulation of microtubule-based process.
