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.

PbursPartner of Bursicon (Pburs) encodes a cystine knot protein that dimerizes with the product of Burs to form the bursicon neurohormone that acts on the receptor encoded by rk. Bursicon neurohormone is released after adult emergence and is required for tanning and hardening of the cuticle and expansion of the wings. (141 aa)    
Predicted Functional Partners:
Burs
Bursicon (Burs) encodes a cystine knot protein that dimerizes with the product of Pburs to form the bursicon neurohormone. Bursicon neurohormone is released after adult emergence and acts on the receptor encoded by rk for tanning and hardening of the cuticle and expansion of the wings.

CCAP
Crustacean cardioactive peptide (CCAP) encodes a conserved 9 amino acid neuropeptide. It is produced by 1-2 neurons in each segment of the ventral nervous system and is released during the shedding of the old exoskeleton (ecdysis). It also has cardioactive functions.
      
 0.898
Eh
Eclosion hormone (Eh) encodes a neurohormone involved in the control of ecdysis. At each ecdysis, the neurohormone is released into the hemolymph where it serves to potentiate the release of the product of ETH through a positive endocrine feedback loop. The product of Eh is also released into the nervous system where it contributes to turning on ecdysis.
      
 0.881
rk
Rickets (rk) encodes a G-protein coupled receptor that signals intracellularly using the second messenger cAMP. It binds the heterodimeric hormone bursicon and is developmentally important for molting-related behaviors. It is also required after adult emergence for cuticle hardening and melanization.
   
  
 0.867
ETH
Ecdysis triggering hormone (ETH) encodes two peptides (DrmETH1 and DrmETH2) involved in ecdysis. ETH depletion leads to respiratory and behavioral deficits, unsuccessful ecdysis and lethality.
   
  
 0.756
nrv3
Nervana 3 (nrv3) encodes one of three beta subunits of the sodium-potassium pump (ATPalpha). nrv3 is expressed in the nervous system, including subsets of the CNS and Johnston's organ neurons, and is required for hearing.
      
 0.730
sNPF
Short neuropeptide F precursor (sNPF) encodes a protein that binds to the product of sNPF-R and activates ERK-Dilps signaling or the PKA-CREB pathway. Its roles include the regulation of cell and organism growth, carbohydrate metabolism, lifespan, feeding behavior, locomotion, circadian rhythm, and sleep.

Allatostatin double C, isoform C; Hormone activity.

FMRFa
Corticotropin-releasing factor-like; FMRFamide (FMRFa) encodes a propeptide precursor that is processed to generate bioactive neuropeptides, many of which activate the G protein coupled receptor encoded by FMRFaR. Physiologically, FMRFa-encoded peptides contribute to neuromuscular physiology modulation and sleep regulation.
      
 0.598
Mip
Allatostatins MIP; Ligand for the sex peptide receptor (SPR). Stabilizes sleep and maintains sleep homeostasis to inhibit the activity of wake-promoting circuits, such as those that involve the pigment dispersing factor (pdf) neurons. Regulated by the circadian clock network and pathways associated with a sleep homeostat. May also have a regulatory role in gut motility.
