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

HemHEM-protein (Hem) encodes a component of the WAVE Regulatory Complex. Hem product regulates processes such as neuronal migration and asymmetric division of neural precursors by inhibiting the product of SCAR degradation. In the asymmetric process, the Hem-pathway indirectly maintains proper localization of proteins such as those encoded by insc and numb; Belongs to the HEM-1/HEM-2 family. (1126 aa)    
Predicted Functional Partners:
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.
   
 0.999
Abi
Abelson interacting protein (Abi) encodes a protein that interacts with the non-receptor tyrosine kinase encoded by Abl. It contributes to the regulation of actin cytoskeleton organization. It is involved in multiple actin dependent processes including cell adhesion, cell morphogenesis, oogenesis, muscle attachment and axogenesis.
   
 0.999
HSPC300
Haematopoietic stem/progenitor cell protein 300 (HSPC300) encodes a subunit of the Scar/WAVE complex, which activates the Arp2/3 complex at the plasma membrane to generate membrane protrusions that drive cell migration.
    
 0.999
SCAR
SCAR, isoform D; SCAR (SCAR) encodes a primary regulator of the Arp2/3 complex, which promotes actin polymerization and influences cell shape and motility. It is involved in myoblast fusion, eye morphogenesis and axogenesis.
   
 0.997
WASp
WASp, isoform A; WASp (WASp) encodes the homolog of the conserved Wiskott-Aldrich Syndrome family of nucleation promoting factors. It enables the Arp2/3 complex to nucleate polymerization of branched microfilament arrays. It contributes to gastrulation, myoblast fusion, synapse morphology at neuromuscular junctions, sensory organ development, and spermatogenesis.
   
 
 0.882
dock
Dreadlocks, isoform B; It is involved in the biological process described with: axon guidance; myoblast fusion; negative regulation of insulin receptor signaling pathway.
    
 0.852
gukh
GUK-holder, isoform A; GUK-holder (gukh) encodes a protein that regulates spindle orientation in neuroblasts via direct interaction with microtubules and the tumor suppressors encoded by dlg1 and scrib. It also plays a role in polarizing fate determinants, such as the product of mira.
    
 0.846
IRSp53
Insulin receptor substrate 53 kDa (IRSp53) encodes a protein required for filopodia formation during the adhesion and fusion of myoblasts.
    
 0.805
Arp2
Actin-related protein 2; Functions as ATP-binding component of the Arp2/3 complex which is involved in regulation of actin polymerization and together with an activating nucleation-promoting factor (NPF) mediates the formation of branched actin networks. Seems to contact the pointed end of the daughter actin filament (By similarity).
    
 0.799
Abl
Tyrosine-protein kinase Abl; Arm and Abl proteins function cooperatively at adherens junctions in both the CNS and epidermis; critical for embryonic epithelial morphogenesis regulating cell shape changes and cell migration. Plays a critical role in transducing embryonic midline repulsive cues; may regulate cytoskeletal dynamics underlying a growth cone's response to midline cues. The ability of pCC/MP2 axons to correctly interpret midline repulsive cues and stay on the ipsilateral side is dependent on the strength of both Slit/robo and Abl-dependent signaling pathways.
