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

esgProtein escargot; Transcription factor that can both stimulate and repress transcription. Binds to the consensus DNA sequence 5'-A/GCAGGTG-3'. Regulates cell motility and adhesion during tracheal morphogenesis by stimulating transcription of the DE-cadherin gene shg at branch tips, thereby promoting tracheal tube fusion. Maintains diploidy in imaginal cells by inhibiting the transcription of genes required for endoreplication. Required for development of the genital disk and acts as an intrinsic determinant of wing cell fate. The somatic protein is required for maintenance of male germ [...] (470 aa)    
Predicted Functional Partners:
nub
Protein nubbin; DNA-binding regulatory protein implicated in early development. Involved in neuronal cell fate decision. Repressed directly or indirectly by the BX-C homeotic proteins. Belongs to the POU transcription factor family. Class-2 subfamily.
    
 
 0.835
CtBP
C-terminal-binding protein; Corepressor targeting diverse transcription regulators. Hairy-interacting protein required for embryonic segmentation and hairy-mediated transcriptional repression; Belongs to the D-isomer specific 2-hydroxyacid dehydrogenase family.
    
 
 0.735
ase
Achaete-scute complex protein T8; Asense (ase) encodes a transcription factor in the achaete-scute complex. It acts together with other proneural genes in nervous system development, which involves N-mediated lateral inhibition. ase is expressed in the CNS type-I neuroblasts and the PNS sensory organ precursors (SOPs) but not in the proneural clusters that give rise to the SOP via lateral inhibition.
   
 
 0.719
Sox21a
Sox21a, isoform B; Sox21a (Sox21a) encodes a Sox family transcription factor involved in the differentiation of stem cells in the midgut.
      
 0.699
robo1
Roundabout 1 (robo1) encodes a member of the Robo receptor family that uses the secreted glycoprotein encoded by sli as ligand and the products of Sdc and Dscam1 as co-receptors. It contributes to axon guidance and dendrite morphogenesis as well as regulating trachea and heart tube development.
   
  
 0.683
shg
DE-cadherin; Cadherins are calcium-dependent cell adhesion proteins. In connecting cells they preferentially interact with themselves in a homophilic manner; cadherins may thus contribute to the sorting of heterogeneous cell types. During oogenesis, integral component of the guidance mechanisms that regulate the directional persistent collective migration of the border cell (BC) cluster through the nurse cells to the oocyte. Functions downstream of the two chemoattractant receptors, Pvr and Egfr, to promote BC adhesion between the leader cells of the migrating cluster and the surroundi [...]
      
 0.680
upd3
Unpaired 3 (upd3) encodes a "cytokine" (secreted protein) of the Unpaired family that can bind and activate the JAK-STAT receptor encoded by dome. It is induced in hemocytes or in the intestine upon damage to regulate the repair response in these tissues through JAK-STAT activation.
   
 
 0.676
Trim9
E3 ubiquitin-protein ligase TRIM9; E3 ubiquitin-protein ligase activity (By similarity). During embryonic and larval development, regulates the pattern of axonal projections of class IV nociceptive sensory neurons (C4da) downstream of netrin receptor fra. Regulates fine-scale topography of C4da axon terminals upon neuronal activity. During eye development, consolidates the attachment of R8 photoreceptor growth cones to the target medulla layer, probably downstream of fra. Belongs to the TRIM/RBCC family.
   
  
 0.674
Gbeta76C
Guanine nucleotide-binding protein subunit beta-2; G protein beta-subunit 76C (Gbeta76C) encodes a protein that forms a Gbeta-gamma complex that is anchored to the plasma membrane via lipid modification of the gamma-subunit. The Gbeta-gamma complex plays an essential role in phototransduction by presenting the Gqalpha-subunit to rhodopsin GPCRs for efficient activation, and preventing spontaneous GDP-GTP exchange on the Gqalpha-subunit.
      
 0.663
sc
Achaete-scute complex protein T4; AS-C proteins are involved in the determination of the neuronal precursors in the peripheral nervous system and the central nervous system. Also involved in sex determination and dosage compensation.
