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

ref(2)PProtein ref(2)P; Required for selective autophagy activation by ubiquitinated proteins. Implicated in sigma rhabdovirus multiplication and necessary for male fertility. Involved in activating transcription of Drs. (599 aa)    
Predicted Functional Partners:
Atg8a
Autophagy-related 8a (Atg8a) encodes a ubiquitin-like protein that is conjugated to phosphatidylethanolamine, and this lipid modification anchors it into the membrane of forming and completed autophagosomes. Atg8a product has roles in autophagosome formation, maintaining neuromuscular function and normal lifespan.

Traf6
TNF-receptor-associated factor 6 (Traf6) encodes a protein that belongs to a family of adaptor proteins involved in transducing downstream signaling by interacting with cell surface receptors. It mediates the pro-inflammatory effects of Toll and related receptor signaling, and the cell death induced by JNK activation via the product of egr.

aPKC
Atypical protein kinase C; Serine/threonine protein kinase which is required for apico- basal cell polarity in the germ line as well as in epithelial and neural precursor cells, for epithelial planar cell polarity and for cell proliferation. During oocyte development, required for the posterior translocation of oocyte specification factors and for the posterior establishment of the microtubule organizing center within the presumptive oocyte. Phosphorylates l(2)gl which restricts l(2)gl activity to the oocyte posterior and regulates posterior enrichment of par-1, leading to establishmen [...]

Keap1
Keap1, isoform B; Keap1 (Keap1) encodes a protein that interacts with the product of cnc to regulate the activation of genes by oxidative stress.
   
 0.960
Atg5
Autophagy protein 5; Involved in autophagic vesicle formation. Conjugation with Atg12, through a ubiquitin-like conjugating system involving Atg7 as an E1-like activating enzyme and Atg10 as an E2-like conjugating enzyme, is essential for its function. The Atg12-Atg5 conjugate acts as an E3- like enzyme which is required for lipidation of Atg8 and its association to the vesicle membranes (By similarity).
    
 0.957
Atg8b
Autophagy-related 8b, isoform A; Microtubule binding; protein tag; ubiquitin protein ligase binding; GABA receptor binding. It is involved in the biological process described with: macroautophagy; autophagosome maturation; cellular response to nitrogen starvation; autophagy of mitochondrion; autophagosome assembly.

park
Parkin (park) encodes an E3 ubiquitin ligase with a key role in protein ubiquitination. It is involved in mitochondrion organization, oxidative stress and locomotion; Belongs to the RBR family. Parkin subfamily.
    
 0.944
Atg12
Autophagy protein 12-like; Required for autophagy.
     
 0.930
Atg1
Autophagy-related 1, isoform B; Autophagy-related 1 (Atg1) encodes a protein kinase that functions downstream of the product of Tor in the regulation of autophagy.
   
 
 0.920
Marf
Transmembrane GTPase Marf; Mitochondrial assembly regulatory factor (Marf) encodes a dynamin-family GTPase that mediates outer mitochondrial membrane tethering and fusion. Marf loss causes mitochondrial fragmentation and endoplasmic reticular stress that evoke skeletal muscle, retinal and heart tube dysfunction; Belongs to the TRAFAC class dynamin-like GTPase superfamily. Dynamin/Fzo/YdjA family. Mitofusin subfamily.
