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

ninaDNeither inactivation nor afterpotential D (ninaD) encodes a scavenger receptor involved in carotenoid transport, light detection and rhodopsin biosynthesis; Belongs to the CD36 family. (513 aa)    
Predicted Functional Partners:
ninaB
Carotenoid isomerooxygenase; Catalyzes the oxidative cleavage at the 15,15'-double bond of carotenoids and the simultaneous all-trans to 11-cis isomerization of one cleavage product. Carotenoids like 11-cis retinal can promote visual pigment biogenesis in the dark. Essential for the biosynthesis of the 3-hydroxyretinal chromophore of rhodopsin from zeaxanthin and for proper photoreceptor development. Also essential for larval light perception.

pinta
Retinol-binding protein pinta; Retinoid-binding protein which shows highest affinity for all-trans retinol. Can also bind all-trans forms of retinoic acid and retinal, but has lower affinity for cis form retinoids. Required in retinal pigment cells for rhodopsin biosynthesis.
      
 0.837
ninaG
Neither inactivation nor afterpotential protein G; Oxidoreductase involved in biosynthesis of 3-hydroxyretinal, a chromophore for rhodopsin Rh1. Not responsible for the initial hydroxylation of the retinal ring but rather acts in a subsequent step in chromophore production. May catalyze the conversion of (3R)-3- hydroxyretinol to the 3S enantiomer.

CG5973
HL01515p; Phosphatidylinositol bisphosphate binding.
   
  
 0.676
Snmp1
Sensory neuron membrane protein 1; Plays an olfactory role that is not restricted to pheromone sensitivity. Has a role in detection and signal transduction of the fatty-acid-derived male pheromone 11-cis vaccenyl acetate (cVA). Not required for sensitivity to general odorants. Acts in concert with Or67d and lush to capture cVA molecules on the surface of Or67d expressing olfactory dendrites and facilitate their transfer to the odorant-receptor Orco complex. Essential for the electrophysiological responses of these olfactory sensory neurons (OSNs) to cVA. Not required for the developmen [...]

CG3829
GH19047p; Belongs to the CD36 family.

CG2736
GH15894p; Belongs to the CD36 family.

Snmp2
Sensory neuron membrane protein 2; Plays an olfactory role that is not restricted to pheromone sensitivity; Belongs to the CD36 family.
  
  
0.588
ninaE
Opsin Rh1; Neither inactivation nor afterpotential E (ninaE) encodes a protein that plays a major role in light detection and vision. It is the rhodopsin expressed in the largest class of photoreceptors in the adult retina. The stimulation by light of the product of ninaE induces G-protein signaling activation, the opening of the channels encoded by trp and trpl and photoreceptor cell membrane depolarization.
